Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:8421  Step-by-step explanation:8050 < abcd < 8500 We must have a = 8, so the number is 8bcd. The value of a is 20 times the value of b, or a= 2b. a = 8, so b = 4. The value of b is 20 times the value of c, or b = 2c. b = 4, so c = 2. The value of c is 20 times the value of d, or c = 2d. c = 2, so d = 1. The secret number is 8421.
