Why 10n ? I don't understand

Because summation of 3 one digit numbers can be greater than 10. So 1st line has 10n but after the calculation we see that actually 10n is a summation of 2 one digit numbers which is less than 20. So n becomes 1.
Scroll down for python exhaustive search.
We just have to look at the last column:
E + R + E ( m o d 1 0 ) = E ∣ − E
R + E ( m o d 1 0 ) = 0
since R and E can't be 0 at the same time, R + E must equal 10.

R + E = 1 0 every time.

Chill, this is waaaaay to complicated:

Just used simple code to solve this:
1 2 3 4 5 |

E+R+E is equal to some number ending in the digit E. Therefore R+E is either 10 or 20. 20 is not a choice, so the answer is 10.
R + E ≠ 20

No need to used this much complex code:

4 + 6 + 4 = 1 4
R = 6 , E = 4 , R + E = 1 0
How did you arrive at this solution? My exhaustive search did not find a solution with R = 6 , E = 4

I didn't look at other alphabets, maybe it doesn't work well with them
I guessed and then the thing worked. so do the thing and the thing dies the thing. the thing works is you just do the thing
brilliant? ya
The equation consisting the last column elements will be equal to
2E +R = E
Rearranging it,
E+R = 0
From the options given below , we only have one such number whose unit place has 0.
So,
E+R =10
EZY :-)

From the unit digit column,
2 E + R E + R ⟹ E + R = 1 0 n + E for some integer n = 1 0 n = 1 0 ∵ 0<E+R<20
