pdf27 Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 I think it's 042 as well. Nothing is correct in 738, one is correct but wrongly placed in 780 - therefore the first or second digit is zero. 206 has two digits correct but wrongly placed. We already know that the first or second digit is zero, so the first digit must be zero. One of 2 or 6 makes up one of the remaining digits, with the other not being present. 682 has one digit correct and correctly placed. Since the first digit must be a zero, the correct digit must be a 2 as the third digit. 614 has one digit correct but wrongly placed. The missing digit must be a 6 or a 4, and we know from (2) that there is no 6 present. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We know pair of shoes = 10 so 2 men = 10 so 1 man = 5 man (5) plus 2 (pairs of) whistles = 13 so 2 (pairs of) whistles = 8 therefore 1 (pair of) whistles = 4 So the final sum single shoe (5) plus man (5) plus single whistle (2) = 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ProDave Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 It's a bit more complicated. The first ones are man plus whistle and the last one is man (no whistle) Which means my values for man and whistle are wrong, and becomes a simultaneous equation to solve to get those.
