If H=10, T=7,M=14,A=11 and E=8, it could result MATH as 42,TEAM as 40 and MEET as 37.
Explanation:
Let us take the word "MATH" first: M+A+T+H=2T+A+T+10=42=>3T+A=32
Similarly, for "TEAM"=> 3T+A+E=40=>E=8(since 3T+A=32)
upon further substitution in the word "MEET", we get T=7 and M=14.
from this, A=11 can be obtained.

Let T be 'x' then M will be '2x', A be 'y' and E be 'z' and given H is 10.so, 3x+y=32 3x+y+z=40 and 3x+2z=37.By solving,x=7,y=11 and z=8.So values of E is 8,A is 11,T is 7 and M is 14.
