My
second Cryptarithm Puzzle. The other is
Crypta-What! GC25TM4. A Cryptarithm is a type of mathematical
puzzle in which most or all of the digits in a mathematical
expression, such as a sum, are substituted by letters or other
symbols. In a typical puzzle, there is a one-to-one correspondence
between the numbers and the letters replacing them. That is, the
same digit is always represented by the same letter. The objective
of the puzzle is to break the code used. That is, to replace each
letter of the Cryptarithm by a numeral so that the resulting
mathematical expression is true. Use your long division skills to
find the number that each letter represents. When done place the
letters in the appropriate 0 - 9 spot and they will spell a
10-letter word used in Geocaching.
And the answer is: Oops! Sorry, the answer is in UTM (Universal
Transverse Mercator) (WGS84 Datum) Zone 17r. You will have to
convert the UTM back to Degrees and Minutes.
