The given simultaneous alphametic relations solves as:

1   2   3   4   5   6   7   8   9   0
E   F   O   R   I   N   G  T   H  U

Then, RIGHT is 45798

The statements:
1. EIGHT is even                          |       are both
4. EIGHT -1 is a prime number  |       TRUE.
Also, ONE, FOUR and NINE are 361, 2304, 6561 and EIGHTEEN is  15798116.

since, EIGHT = 15798, which is a even number.
and, EIGHT-1 = 15797, which is a prime number.
