Dear friends, I asked my colleague to tell her password to login into her system, when she was on leave. She did not revealed her password, but gave some clues and asked me to find out by myself.
I am little bit poor in mathematics, hence request you all to try and tell me her pass word.
Here are the clues given by her.

1. It is a five digits pass word, with only numbers and no other characters.
2. The fifth number plus the third number equals fourteen.
3. The fourth number is one more than the second number.
4. The first number is one less than twice the second number.
5. The second number plus the third number equals ten.
6. The total sum of all five numbers is thirty.

Please find out and tell me, what are the five numbers and in which order?

Wish you all the best.

@ gajapati and vignesh.
I tried the pass words given by you, but could not log in.
It is a five digits number. Both your answers got a 10 at 5th position, which makes the answer to 6 digits.

Please try again.

All the best

vignesh, again I tried to log in with your new number. But, it shows that, the pass word entered is wrong.

5th and 3rd number should make 14.
4th number should be one more than the second number.
1st number should be one less than twice the second number.

Please try again.
All the best

Does it have two answers? I cannot decide the one from the above two :)
@vignesh,
@gajapati.
Check the figures from your respective answers.....
4th number should be one more than the second number.
1st number should be one less than twice the second number.

This puzzle contains only one answer.
Kindly read my puzzle carefully and do not miss any point.


Please try again.
All the best
