If all the 7 digits appearing in the above alphametic sum up to a number below 30,
what is the lowest possible value of
ZEST?
For PASTA+PIZZA = SALSA:
0123456789 Sum
(a) APLS.T..ZI 28
(b) A.P.LS.TZI 35
(c) A.PL.S.ZTI 34
(a) is the only solution where the alphametic sum < 30.
For (a), the lowest unassigned value is 4, making ZEST = 8435.
