1) 196052
2) 196002
3) 195984
4) 195842
5) 195802
6) 195798

Let the no. be abcde where a>b>c>d>e
Given = a+b+c+d+e = 25
and a b c d e
-e d c b a
;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
8 4 9 4 2

Solve it using cryptographic techniques
1st digit a-e=8,, so take a=9 and e=1
using this d-1+10-b=4 { second last digit }
d+5=b
now take d=2 , b=7 or d=3 , b=8
putting all the values and c a random we get
a= 9 a=9
b= 7 b=8
c= c=
d= 2 d=3
e=1 e=1
Now using given condition a+b+c+d+e=25;;
c=6 c=4
Hence nos are 97621 and 98431 and no other case satisfies the conditions in the question ,
Hence sum = 97621
+98431

(A1*10^4+A2*10^3+A3*10^2+A4*10+A5) - (A5*10^4+A4*10^3+A3*10^2+A2*10+A1) = 84942
1111*(A1 - A5) + 110*(A2 - A4) = 9438
Now: becuase A1 - A5 is 8 hence A1 and A5 can only be 9 and 1
therefore: 110(A2 - A4)= 550
and hence: A2 - A4 = 5
A3 can be any number between A2 and A4
The result would therefor be: 98731, 98631, 98531, 98431, 97621, 97521, 97421, 97321
