Answer:
8542
Statement
1.It is a four digit number
2.The tens are double the ones
3.The thousands are double the tens
4.The sum of the digits is nineteen
Step-by-step explanation:
It is a four digit number
lets take 4 digit number-ABCD
The tens are double the ones
[tex]C=2D[/tex]-----------------------------1
The thousands are double the tens
[tex]A=2C[/tex]-------------------------------2
According to equation 1 and 2
[tex]A=4D[/tex]
If we take
[tex]D=1,2[/tex]
Possible number
[tex]4B21[/tex] OR [tex]8B42[/tex]
The sum of the digits is nineteen
I use hit and trial method
[tex]4B21[/tex]- If I take B is maximum
[tex]4+9+2+1\neq 19[/tex]
[tex]8B42[/tex]- If, i try to find value of B
[tex]8+B+4+2=19[/tex]---------------------3
[tex]14+B=19\\B=19-14\\B=5[/tex]
So the unknown number is- 8542
