Um. What?A+B=C C+D=EA2+4=6 6+8=(7)(2)4+8=12.But this is clearly wrong, because it says this isn't simple math. And what is shown above is simple math.
Lucy, EA is not E*A. It's a two digit number. It wasn't very clear.And it's not that it isn't simple, it just isn't quite so simple.Try again.
B+D=10.C=A+B C+D=A+B+DA+B+D=EAB+D=EA-AEA-A=10EA has to be at least 10 and less than 20 because it is the sum of two single digit numbers. So then say if A is 2, then 12-2=10, or if A is 5, 15-5=10, etc.
I'm sorry, I don't understand. Maybe if I knew what portion of B+D resembles PacMan, I could figure it out.
Is this right?A + B = C2 + 6 = 8C + D = EA8 + 4 = 12
Um, well, read the problem again. What is the question that is being asked? It always helps to try and answer the question that is being asked.
Oh, I see. Duh. So Luke's answer is "the" answer. I got sidetracked by the cryptogram aspect of it.

2+4=6 6+8=(7)(2)
4+8=12.

B+D=10.
C=A+B C+D=A+B+D
A+B+D=EA
B+D=EA-A
EA-A=10

Is this right?
A + B = C
2 + 6 = 8
C + D = EA
8 + 4 = 12
