ABCDEF^(____________) =10000ABCD^(_______) +EF^(___)   17[10000AB^(___) +CDEF^(_______) ]=12[100CDEF^(_______) +AB^(___) ]  170000AB^(___) −12AB^(___) =1200CDEF^(_______) −17CDEF^(________)   ⇒((AB^(___) )/(CDEF^(________) ))=((1183)/(169988))=((13)/(1868))  Note that AB^(___)  and CDEF^(_______)  can still be increased  by a factor of 5 while  ABCDEF^(___________)  remains a  6-digit number  ⇒The largest 6-digit number=659340       The smallest 6-digit number=131868

This leads to  ((AB)/(13))=((CDEF)/(1868))  With all digits different we have only 2  possibilities:  ((39)/(13))=((5604)/(1868))=3  ((65)/(13))=((9340)/(1868))=5  ⇒  Answer is 659340
