                    Example- 1


                       Find the values of the letters in each of the following and give
                       reasons for the steps involved.







                    ANSWER :On putting A = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and so on and we get, 7 + 5 =
                    12 in which ones place is 2.
                         A = 7
                       And putting 2 and carry over 1, we get
                       B = 6
                       Hence A = 7 and B = 6

                          .

                    ANSWER :


                          . Here, we observe that B = 5
                          so that 7 + 5 = 12.
                          Putting 2 at ones place and carry over 1 and A = 2, we get
                          2 + 3 + 1 = 6
                          Hence A = 2 and
