Can You Solve This Tricky Question? by Lilprincey(m): 5:11pm On Jul 09, 2016
Where ar d mathematicians? ? Here is a
brain teaser....

A house wife forgot her bank account *PIN
CODE * which is five digits number, but
luckily she remember some hints on how to
recall this *PIN * Here ar some of the clues
(1) the first digit is a square of d 2nd digit

(2) the sum of the 2nd & 3rd digit is 10

(3) the 4th digit is equal to the 2nd digit plus 1

(4) the 3rd digit plus the 5th digit makes 14

(5) the sum of all the digit is 30......Then what is
the *PIN CODE *..........?

Here is the answer... you know, posting this on programming section was the worst you can do... programmers like us are very intelligent when it comes to something like this.

SOLUTI0N

I'll just use 5 variables:
a, b, c, d, e

a = b^2
b + c = 10
d = b+1
c + e = 14
a+b+c+d+e = 30

D pin code is 93747.. not though as I anticipated.

Used A,B,C,D,E as the variables. As B was everywhere so I solved for it. Got B = 3. And from there easy. A,B,C,D,E are 9,3,7,4,7 respectively.

But 6+3 is not 10 'B+C = 10' from the hint

What's the 5 digit pin?
c + e = 14
;
therefore

e = 14 - c

Can you solve this one?
In a detergent shop, one carton of omo contains 10 rolls and one roll contains 5 sachets. If the shop has 10 cartons of omo and a Customer purchased 3 cartons, 2rolls and 1sachet, how many will remain?
The answer will be 6 cartons , 6 rolls and 4 sachets. The questions now is, how did you arrive at the answer? show all working if possible drive a formula that can solve this problem.

This python code solves the question:
for i in range(0,10):
for j in range(0,10):
for k in range(0,10):
for l in range(0,10):
for m in range(0,10):

a = i
b = j
c = k
d = l
e = m
if a == b**2 and b+c == 10 and d == b+1 and c+e == 14 and a+b+c+d+e==30:
print(a, b, c, d, e)
