take fives And Sixes, Get N
The different letters correspond to different digits, with the subscripts denoting the two bases in both sides of this cryptarithmetic equation.
(ABC)6 = (DBEF)5 If the common value in each side of the equation is equal to a positive integer N in base 10, what is the minimum value of N? Note: None of A or D can be zero. |

Very good, Caracrist.
But there seems to be a typing error, since: [color=#ededed] (435)6 = (1132)5 (2301)5 = (1302)6[/ color], Perhaps you inadvertently posted the solution to: (ABCD)5 = (DBCA)6 If so, I must compliment you for an accurate solution of that other problem. *** Request Administrator assistance in due concealment of the chosen portion, for which the code do not seem to work for my browser. |
