The only number which when multiplied by 3 results in a number whose unit's place digit is the same as that number is 5 . We have 5 × 3 = 1 5 , and so 1 is carried over. Therefore the unit's place digit of 3 G is 4 , and therefore G is 8 . Then 2 is carried and 3 R must have a unit's place digit 3 , and it has to have a single digit. Therefore R = 1 , and B B B = 5 5 5 .
