Hints
Solution
Incorrect
Too bad! Pay close attention to the equations and the answer will become clear.
Correct
That's right! ABCD = 2368.
Since A + C and A x 4 both equal D, then C must equal A x 3. If C - B = B, then C must also equal B x 2. The only single-digit number divisible by both 2 and 3 is 6. Once you know that C = 6, the rest is easy.
