Yes, you're doubling a two-digit number AB here (adding it to itself), and getting a two-digit number as a result. So AB has to be less than 50, or else you'd get a three-digit result. And if AB < 50, that means A < 5.

Re: In the correctly-worked addition operation above, A, B, C, and D each [#permalink]
A. D = 2B

B. B > 5

C. C = 2A

D. A < 5

E. D > B


We know that D= 2B from the question itself so hold option A

B) B can also be less than 5 (can take 0, 1, 2, 3, 4) rejected

C) C=2A what if their is a carryover rejected

D) A can take 1,2,3,4 but cannot take 0 rejected

E) D can be equal to B when B=0 rejected

Hence A

D = 8 is not equal to 2* B = 18


Yes ohh i missed it the trick here was "A, B, C, and D each represent unique digits"

so B=D=0 is not possible

If A>5, then the answer would be a three digit number, so A must be less than 5. Ans - D.

It should be D as anything greater then 5 (for A position ) will give the end result in 3 digits
