During the March Holidays, I introduced you to alphametics, whereby alphabets were used to represent unique numbers in a sum. Today, I shall share with you another type of alphametics that is especially interesting. They are called doubly true alphametics. Reason being, not only do they each fit a unique number, the statement they make in numbers is true as well. Below is an example:
THREE
THREE
TWO
TWO
+ ONE
------
ELEVEN
3 + 3 + 2 + 2 + 1 = 11 is true as well!

For those who solved the previous puzzle, the answer is
5 x 7 + 9 = 44 indeed (well done!)
