What is the answer to the last equation?
5 3 2 = 151012
10000 × (x × y) + 100 × (x × z) + transpose_digits(x × y + y × z)
transpose_digits() just swaps the digits
10000 × (x × y) + 100 × (x × z) + transpose_digits(x × y + y × z)
transpose_digits() just swaps the digits
Without changing the order of these numbers, how can they equal 100?
3 5 6 2 54 5
