Answer:

8542

Statement

1.It is a four digit number

2.The tens are double the ones

3.The thousands are double the tens

4.The sum of the digits is nineteen

Explanation:

It is a four digit number

lets take 4 digit number-ABCD

The tens are double the ones


C=2D-----------------------------1

The thousands are double the tens


A=2C-------------------------------2

According to equation 1 and 2


A=4D

If we take


D=1,2

Possible number


4B21 OR
8B42

The sum of the digits is nineteen

I use hit and trial method


4B21- If I take B is maximum


4+9+2+1\\eq 19


8B42- If, i try to find value of B


8+B+4+2=19---------------------3


14+B=19\\B=19-14\\B=5

So the unknown number is- 8542
