very first adding up the 3 given equations:
a+b+c+d=17
d+e+f+g=17
g+h+i=17
we get,
a+b+c+2d+e+f+2g+h+i=51-----------------(1)
we know that,
a+b+c+d+e+f+g+h+i=45-------------------(2)
subtracting equation (2) from (1),we get:
d+g=6
as the values are between 1-9,d and g can take following values:
1] (d,g)=(1,5)
2] (d,g)=(2,4)
3] (d,g)=(3,3)
but the 2nd option is not possible as a=4 and each alphabet holds a unique value.the 3rd option too,is not possible as d and g cannot have the same values.hence the correct answer is (d,g)=(1,5).
what is the question?
Success is not by Luck it is by Hardwork, You have to do hardwork to remove not for your luck.
