Consider the thousands column. The letters represent different digits so, as
is 3,
is 2 and there is a carry of 1 from the hundreds column.
Therefore
is 9,
is 0 and there is also a carry of 1 from the tens
column. In the units column,
produces a units digit of 3, so
3
or
13. However,
3 requires one of
,
to equal zero
(impossible as
0) or 2 (also impossible as
2). So
13.
We can also deduce that
is 8, since, in the tens column, 1
3
12.
The pairs of digits that produce a sum of 13 are 4 and 9, 5 and 8, 6 and 7.
As
is 9 and
is 8, the only possible values for
and
are 6 and 7.
These are interchangeable, but in both cases
