Bob the Builder goes to work very early but he encountered a problem. He
forgot the five digit access code to his high-tech workshop. However, he
remembered the five clues to get the right five digit access code.
Hereunder are the clues:

1. The fifth number plus the third number of the access code equals fourteen.
2. The fourth number is one more than the second number.
3. The first number is one less than twice the second number.
4. The second plus the third number equals ten.
5. The total of all the five numbers is thirty.
The answer is the password of the attached excel file! Once you have opened it, add your name and pass it on!

Following is a file open it by solving above quiz.........!

Your answer to your question is 74658

first number: (2b-1)
Second number of course is: b
third number: (10-b)
fourth number: (b+1)
fifth number: 14 - (10-b)

=equation=

>(2b - 1) + b + (10 - b) + (b + 1) + 14 - (10 - b) = 30
>2b+b-b+b+b-1+10+1+14-10
>4b + 14 = 30
>4b = 30 - 14
>4b = 16
>b = 4

Therefore "B" is equal to 4. the next step is to substitute this value into every equation.

Solution:
abcxy

y+c=14

x=b+1

a=2b-1

b+c=10

a+b+c+x+y=30

14+a+b+x=30

a+b+x=16

a+2b+1=16

a+2b=15

4b=16

b=4

a=7

c=6

y=8

x=5
