Adding up numbers in Portuguese is strange
$begingroup$
My friend from Portugal said that 2 + 2 is 8 in Portuguese. And he could prove it. I did not understand it at first. But then he showed me the following equation:
D O I S
D O I S
+ ________
O I T O
Ah, now it is clear. Two is "dois" and eight is "oito" in Portuguese. And the equation above makes perfect sense. Could you solve the single one solution that explain this?
Rules: D, O, I, S and T are a number between 0 - 9. Each one is unique.
