Basic Concepts Completing the Equation

When completing an equation by using numbers from 0 to 9 without
repetition, first write in the numbers that already have a fixed position.
There are several ways to make the following equations true.

369
817
4 5 20

Example Numbers from 1 to 9 are represented by the letters to . To

make the equations in the box true, find the value of the 2-digit

number that represents.

Class Notes

Since ,.

If the product of two identical factors is a 1-digit number, the only possible numbers are

1, 2, and 3. In the equation, . Therefore 2, is , or if 3,

is .

If 3 and , is a 2-digit number in the equation .

Therefore, 2 and , which means that .

In the equation , represents the 2-digit number 21. Hence, is

the only possible number for . Therefore, and .

In the equation , since and , is .

In the equation , and , and the remaining numbers are

5 and 9. Therefore and . .
The 2-digit number that represents is
