Answer:

  • 12 solutions

Explanation:

  • Its clear that S = 3
  • We are looking for all AT + UN = 100
  • Which becomes: T + N = 10 and A + U = 9
  • Considering 7, 0 and 3 already used, we get the combination of the rest of the digits
  • In total, 12 possible solutions

Here is all the solutions:

  1. 314 + 386 = 700
  2. 316 + 384 = 700
  3. 341 + 359 = 700
  4. 342 + 358 = 700
  5. 348 + 352 = 700
  6. 349 + 351 = 700
  7. 351 + 349 = 700
  8. 352 + 348 = 700
  9. 358 + 342 = 700
  10. 359 + 341 = 700
  11. 384 + 316 = 700
  12. 386 + 314 = 700
