How does C - B = B? Just a big ol' wat from me.

A=2,B=3,C=6,D=8

Hints #1

Two of the equations have D as their answer.

Your starting point should be to compare these two equations.

Hint #2
A + C and A x 4 both equal D.
Since A x 4 is the same as A + A + A,
C must equal a x 3.

Hint #3
C - B = B. This means that C = 2 x B.

You also know from the second hint that C = 3 x A.

Only one single-digit number is divisible by both 2 and 3. Find it and you've found the key to solving the puzzle.

Flawless victory

are you asking individually what A, B, C, and D would be or are you asking what AxBxCxD is? Algebra is fucking confusing

288

A = 0
B = 0
C = 0
D = 0

I win

A = A
B = C / A = 2B / A => A = 2
C = D - A = 4A - A = 3A = 6
B = C / A = 6 / 2 = 3
D = 8

Is ABCD A*B etc?

>>Since A x 4 is the same as A + A + A,
Man, you just blew my mind. How the shit did I fucking pass algebra

ABCD...what?

You want them multiplied? Ok, 288.

D = 8
A = 2
C = 6
B = 3

Two cars are driving towards the same town. One car is 48 miles away, another is 50 miles away. The car that is further away is going 3 miles per hour faster than the car that is closer. They both reach the town at the same time.

How fast was each car going?

No hints faggot

this is fucking stupid. this is 10th grade algebra.

the idea with professor layton puzzles is they're supposed to look like you have to bust out all this crazy ass math but the solution is simple. this is something you'd find in a math textbook, not a layton puzzle.

OP is a fucking faggot.

They're all zero.

>>29681314
why do you even think about single digit numbers? that doesn't have to do with anything

192

>>29681266
that just means C is twice the size of B

>>29681266
C - B = B
C = 2B

C is twice as large as B, so subtracting B from C gives you B.

>>29681405

Damn it, that had to only have taken me 2 minutes, but /v/ swoops in for the steal.

A = 0, B = 0, C = 0, D = 0

ABCD = 0

This is simple algebra guys

What the fuck.. Is /v/ actually retarded, or just

>>29681266
>>29681343
>>29681403

? Seriously guys, this is pathetic

>>29681266
Because C is greater than B, not that difficult brosef.

>>29681487

Incorrect. I just think this equation is rather fun and would like to see if /v/ could get it

>>29681409
48/x = 50/(x+3)
Solve for x that makes this true, x is the speed of the slower car. x+3 is speed of faster car.

>>29681325
Even after re-reading it three times, it still ain't funny. I never knew there was worse than Bald & Piglike or B^U.

This might be wrong, let's see.

4A = D

so A + C = 4A, so C = 3A

3A - B = B

so B = 1.5A

A = A
B = 1.5A
C = 3A
D = 4A

A x 1.5A = 3A

(A x 1.5A)/1.5A = 3A/1.5A

A = 1.5

so

A = 1.5
B = 2.25
C = 4.5
D = 6

>>29681551
Woah now, let's not go saying CAD is better than anything else. This is a bad comic based on a game, but CAD is a bad comic no matter what.

C - B = B

C = 2B
A x B = 2B
A = 2
D = 8
C = 6
B = 3

hurrr

>>29681416
see >>29681387
i bet you feel dumb now, it's okay happens to everyone

OP realizes there is more than 1 answer right?

Uh retard;
A + C = D (2 + 2 = 4)
A x B = C (2 x 1 = 2)
C - B = B (2 - 1 = 1)
A x 4 = D (2 x 4 = 4)

AxBxCxD = 2x1x2x4 = 16

YES! JUST WHAT I ALWAYS WANTED! A GAME THAT FORCES ME TO REMEMBER MATH FROM 3-4 YEARS AGO.

>>29681663

>A x 4 = D (2 x 4 = 4)

>>29681387
>>29681663
you don't just decide it like that, it's one of the answers, it's not THE answer

>>29681506
you're obviously an idiot.
4a=/= a+a+a.
thats 3a you dumbshit.

>>29681285

it could be any multiple of those numbers as long as they are kept in proportion.

so all number times 0, all numbers times 5, 6.7 etc.

fuck your shit layton

>>29681663

We were not told whether to find the answer (solve generically) or provide any answer from the vector space of possiblities.

There are multiple correct concrete answers to this problem. The zero vector being one of them.

C is 0?

____1____=___A___+___B___
(x^2)+x-6 x+3 x-2

Solve for A and B so the equation is always true

>>29681959
::lolitrolface:: ?

A + C = D
A x B = C
A + (A x B) = D
2B = C
A = 2
D = 8
2 + C = 8
C = 6
6 - B = B
B = 3

ABCD = 2 x 3 x 6 x 8

ABCD = 288

>>29681573
3 / 1,5 = 2, dumbass.

>>29681183
>C - B = B
This gave it away.

B has to be Zero.
So, if Ax0 = C, C is Zero also.

a+c = d so A and D are the same.
a x 4 = d, so A and D are zero.

>>29682021

It's A divided by x+3, B divided by x-2

one divided by x squared plus x minus 6

>>29682090

Or B is just half of C.

>>>/r9k/3815195

OUGHT TO BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELVES

C = 6
B = 3
A = 2
D = 8
ABCD = 288

ABCD = 0

A = 0
B = 0
C = 0
D = 0

ABCD = 0000
or
ABCD = 2368

For each piece of chocolate, look at its letter on the COMPUTER KEYBOARD in front of you.

Then, look at the side the BITE MARK in the chocolate is on.

:D

>>29681266 How does C - B = B? Just a big ol' wat from me.
Oh come on, this is NOT complicated.
C - B = B
Thus, C = 2B

To continue:
D = 4A
A + C = D, so A + 2B = 4A, so A=(2/3)B
AB = C, so (2/3)B^2 = 2B, so B=3
Thus, A=2, C=6, and D=8

>>29681573
Sorry, but that's wrong. By your answer, AxB=1.5x2.25=3.375, which is not what you have for C.

>>29682096

It says "TEXT ME". You have to get the letters by going one key in the direction designated by the BITE MARKS IN THE FUCKING CHOCOLATE.

The horrendous part about this is that in the Japanese version, the important part (the bites) is a lot easier to see (bigger, more obvious), and the very first hint mentions it, whereas in the English version it's not even mentioned in any of the hints.

This was just a terrible localization job on that puzzle, not the player's fault if they can't figure it out.

>>29681984
You are wrong! It is 72 and 75. I'm right!

>>29682197
forgot my sage

A = 2 V A = 0
B = 3 V B = 0
C = 6 V C = 0
D = 8 V D = 0
ABCD = 2x3x6x8 = 288 V ABCD = 0

V means "or"
