According to proverb, "two wrongs do not make a right". However, Professor Abacus, renowned cryptomathematician, has discovered a mathematical formula that proves that two wrongs do make a right. Make the following equation correct by replacing each letter with a numeral (0 through 9, except 2, which is already being used as the multiplier in the equation). Each letter can represent only one numeral, and each numeral can only be represented by one letter. There are no leading 0's. Find one of the two possible solutions.
WRONG * 2 = RIGHT
WRONG * 2 = RIGHT
Answer
37908 * 2 = 7581649153 * 2 = 98306
