Question

If $ME\times YE=TTT$, then find the value of $Y+M+E+T$.

• A. 21
• B. 33
• C. 41
• D. 56

Answer 1

The correct option is A 21

TTT = 100T + 10T + T
= T(111)
= T(37 × 3)

Here, we have
$37\times 3\times 1=111$
$37\times 3\times 2=222$
$37\times 3\times 3=333$
$37\times 3\times 4=444$
$37\times 3\times 5=555$
$37\times 3\times 6=666$
$37\times 3\times 7=777$
$37\times 3\times 8=888$
$37\times 3\times 9=999$ or $37\times 27$ = 999

Since, ME x YE = TTT
Hence, we can take
37 x 27 = 999

M = 3, Y = 2, E = 7 and T = 9
Or M = 2, Y = 3, E = 7 and T = 9

Y + M + E + T
= 2 + 3 + 7 + 9 or 3 + 2 + 7 + 9
= 21
