The equation MATH = COU + NTS can be made true if each of the letters M, A, T, H, C, O, U, N and S is replaced by a different digit and the equation is seen as the sum of two three-digit integers resulting in a four-digit integer. If C = 2, a solution can be found in which one of the three-digit integers is a multiple of 23. In that case, what four-digit integer does MATH represent?

MATH = COU + NTS

  1034 = 298 + 736         736 is a multiple of 23.
