Answer:
(B) 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the units column. The only sum of 3 and a single digit that will end in 1 is the sum ...
3 + 8 = 11
This tells you A = 8, so the top number is 1983, and the middle number is B78.
Considering the first two columns, we know that 83 +78 = 161, so there must be a carry of 1 into the third column. That makes it have the sum ...
1 + 9 + B = <something ending in 4>
We know the something cannot be 04 or 24, so must be 14. Then ...
10 + B = 14 ⇒ B = 4
__
So, the whole sum is ...
1983 +478 = 2461
and the letter values are ...
