Upon returning from Las Vegas my
BOYfriend quipped, grinning from ear to ear:
"it was a wonderful vacation!
Nobody actually
KNOWS, how
2uch
2oney he
WON,
but you can easily find out by solving the simple alphametic using the bolded part of this puzzle text.
The resulting product will give you the dollar value of his "reward".
As per the hint, solving:
boy*win=knows
leads to 3 solutions, but 2 of them involve a '2'.
Since 2 is excluded from the answer, the only remaining one (excluding the flip/flop of boy and win) is:
boy = 195
win = 446
knows = 86970
The boy won $86,970.
