Question

Find the value of the letters in the following:

    2  L M
+  L M 1  
   M  1  8  

Sum

Solution

                    2  L M
We have, +  L M  1  
                   M  1  8 

In first column, M + 1 = 8

Clearly, M = 7

In second column, L + M = 1

⇒ L + 7 = 1

∴ The value of L can be 4.

In third column, 2 + L + 1 = M

⇒ 2 + 4 + 1 = 7

⇒ 7 = 7, so the third column is satisfied for L = 4, M = 7

Hence, L = 4 and M = 7
