the answer is 5,
the ten A=6 and c=4 or A=4 and C=6, to have E=1 and F=0, then we are left with 3, 2, 5
obviously we will have G=5
please correct me if wrong

Hi Adam:

Sure !! ... EF has to be 10 because the range of numbers is 0 ... 6, that is, 6 + 4, not possible 6+5 because numbers can't repeat. That leave us with 2+3=5

I understood it after your explanation, Thank you ! ...
