Solution

The images you uploaded describe a problem that involves finding numbers that satisfy a given equation, where symbols stand in for unknown digits. Here’s a breakdown of the instructions and examples provided:

Problem Explanation:

  1. Symbols as Numbers:

    • Each symbol (e.g., ▲, ◼, etc.) represents a digit between 0 and 9.
    • A single symbol corresponds to a single digit, while a combination of symbols represents numbers in decimal form (e.g., two symbols represent a two-digit number).
    • Important: The numbers do not have leading zeros (so 007 would be written as 7).
  2. Consistency of Symbols:

    • If the same symbol appears multiple times, it always represents the same digit.
    • Different symbols represent different digits.
  3. Objective:

    • Your task is to assign the correct digit to each symbol such that the resulting equation is true.

Example 1 (Beispiel 1):

  • Equation: ▲ · 2 = 2
    • The task is to figure out what digit ▲ represents.
    • The only correct solution is ▲ = 1, because 1 · 2 = 2.

Example 2 (Beispiel 2):

  • Equation: ◼ + ◼ = ◼ ◼
    • This example shows that the correct digit for ◼ is 0.
    • For instance, 0 + 0 = 00 or 77 + 0 = 77.

These examples demonstrate how each symbol must represent a unique digit that satisfies the given equation when substituted back.

Would you like help with solving a similar problem or further clarification?

Here are 5 related questions you can consider:

  1. What happens if we assign a symbol an incorrect digit?
  2. Can there be multiple solutions for one symbol?
  3. How does the placement of symbols influence the result?
  4. Can two different symbols represent the same digit?
  5. How does removing the no-leading-zero constraint affect the problem?

Tip: Always start by analyzing the simplest part of the equation first, as this can help narrow down the possibilities for other symbols.
