Topics: anagram, codeword, letter map, rational numbers, rounding

Each correct answer gives a number. Use the scrambled letter map to translate those numbers into letters. The five letters you uncover form an anagram – solve it to unlock the codeword. Round normally to get to a rational number, if needed.

13 = S | 12 = C | 1 = M | 3 = I | 5 = T | 14 = Q | 8 = V | 9 = H | 17 = X | 18 = J

Code Breaker – Easy

Easy tip: treat this as two mini puzzles — (1) algebra, then (2) an anagram.

  • Algebra stage: solve one equation at a time, and double-check your arithmetic before moving on.
  • Mapping stage: immediately translate each numeric answer using the provided number→letter map.
  • Anagram stage: write the letters in a row and try common patterns (short words often “snap” into place quickly).

Quick check: your final word should use the correct letters with no extras or omissions.
