Question

What would be the highest value of X in the given equation:

1X9 + 1Y7 + 2Z8 = 424

A.

0

B.

7

C.

2

D.

1

Correct option is A

Given:

The equation is 1X9 + 1Y7 + 2Z8 = 424

Solution:
We express the numbers in terms of the digits:

1X9 = 100 + 10X + 9

1Y7 = 100 + 10Y + 7

2Z8 = 200 + 10Z + 8.

The equation becomes:

(100 + 10X + 9) + (100 + 10Y + 7) + (200 + 10Z + 8) = 424.

400 + 10(X + Y + Z) + 24 = 424

424 + 10(X + Y + Z) = 424.

10(X + Y + Z) = 0

X + Y + Z = 0.

For the sum X + Y + Z = 0, the only solution is X = 0, Y = 0, and Z = 0.

Thus, the highest value of X is 0.
