12 is the ans as the leftmost digit would be 1 (carry) and m should be such that on adding a carry from u+h it should change so we choose 9 for m and thus adding (9=m) +1 (carry) o becomes 9+1=10 so o=0.now we would have to assume values for h+w such that there should be no conflict in number assignment we choose h=7 and w=5 adding we get r=12.so r=2.now c+o should be such that when adding 0 which is the value of 0 that we found earlier the number should change from c to e.so let c=3 then e=c+o(0)+1 (carry). which gives e=4.now u+h should be such that we get w which is equal to 5 that we found earlier.so u(=8)+h(=7) gives w=5 so ading values of p+o+w+e+r we get 12

HOW can be numbered as 814,MUCH can be numbered as 9638 and therefore POWER=10452
P+O+W+E+R=12

H O W
M U C H
--------------
P O W E R
H+U GIVES THE CARRY ,M and carry also generate carry 1,So
P SHOULD BE 1,
O SHOULD BE 0,
M SHOULD BE 9,
W+H=H+10-----(1) W+H generates carry 1 then
C+1=E---------(2)
H+U=W+10-------(3) H+U generates carry 1
from equation (1) & (3),
2W=R+U-------(4)
now reducing the possibility range of variables,we get
W---->[4,5]--->[5],
H---->[7,8]-----[7],
then,
R----[2],
U---[8], THEN REMAINING NUMBERS ARE 3,4, & 6 ,
C----[3],
E----[4],
C E H M O P R U W
3 4 7 9 0 1 2 8 5
THEN ,
P+O+W+E+R=1+0+5+4+2 =12.

how did M get 9?

anjesh anand  (10 years ago)

m=9(for sum of 4 digit &3 digit =5 digit only when leftmost digit of 4 digit is 9)
so p=1 &0 =0
let c=3
from remaining digit 2,5,6,7,8 we have to select value of h&w so that h+w gives a carry(coz if not so c(3)+o(0)=3 i.e. false)
so we select h=7 and w=5 which gives u= 8.
M(9)U(8)C(3)H(7)
H(7)O(0)W(5)
P(1)O(0)W(5)E(4)R(2)=12

P+O+W+E+R=(H+O+W).(M+U+C+H)
comparing this with popular De'Broglie's equation in digital logic.
SOP and POS forms.

Ann Theressa  (10 years ago)

ans:12

M = 9 bcoz sum of a 3 digit number and 4 digit number only becomes a 5 digit number if the 4 digit number begins with 9. Also that 5 digit number will always begin with 10. so P=1 and O=0

vinoth kumar  (10 years ago)

Let
M + Sum value should give a carry
so M = 9
then O = 0, P = 1
H + U = should give carry
W + H = Should give carry
So take W = 5, H = 7 => W+H=2 with carry 1
take U = 8 => H + U = 5 with carry 1
therefore P = 1, O = 0, W = 5, E = 4, R = 2
P+O+W+E+R = 12
Answer is 12
