\(x, y, z,\) and \( t\) are different nonzero digits.
\(x + y + z = 2\)t
We need the max value of \(t\) so we need the max sum, which can be obtained with \(x, y\) & \(z\) being the highest possible digits.
Take \(x = 9, y = 8, z = 7\)
\(x+y+z = 24\)
Max value of \(t = 4\)
Qt A = Qt B
Answer \(C\)
\(x + y + z = 2\)t
We need the max value of \(t\) so we need the max sum, which can be obtained with \(x, y\) & \(z\) being the highest possible digits.
Take \(x = 9, y = 8, z = 7\)
\(x+y+z = 24\)
Max value of \(t = 4\)
Qt A = Qt B
Answer \(C\)

I'm not following you here.
we need to find the maximum possible value of t
and by doing your example we get 24 as sum of x,y,z
24 by logic should equal to 2t= t=12!!!
