The Magnitude Is Important!

Logic Level 1

□ + □ □ + □ □ □ + □ □ □ □ \large \square + \square \square + \square \square \square + \square \square \square \square

Place distinct digits from 0 through 9 in the boxes to get the minimum possible sum. Submit your answer as this minimum sum.

Note : You are allowed to start the number with 0.

Details and Assumptions :

  • This is an arithmetic puzzle, where 1 □ 1 \square would represent the 2-digit number 19 if □ = 9 \square = 9 . It does not represent the algebraic expression 1 × □ 1 \times \square .

6+57+148+0239=450. But in your solution you entered as 6+57+148+0239=400. Please chance 400 to 450.

Place 9, 8, 7, 6 in the ones places, 5, 4, 3 in the tens place, 1 & 2 in the hundreds and 0 in the thousands so it looks something like this 9 + 58 + 247 + 0136 = 450
