A * [(B + C)^(D - E) - F^(G*H) ] / J = 10

All i know is
C - B = 1
H - G = 3
Each value is a unique, single-digit, nonzero number

I'm supposed to find values of all the variables! Can anyone help? =(

A=2
B=5
C=6
D=9
E=7
F=3
G=1
H=4
J=8

2*[(5+6)^(9-7) - 3^(1*4)]/8
= 2*(11^2 - 3^4)/8
= 2*(121-81)/8
= 2*40/8
= 80/8
= 10

I started out by assuming that G and H would be as low as possible, because with a difference of three, the possibilities are 1 and 4, 2 and 5, etc, and anything to the 10th power or higher would be absurd to calculate and, in the end, get back down to 10. so G and H are 1 and 4. from there I just made educated guesses about what was likely to go where, and what numbers could still be used. it's all trial and error, but it's not too much if you're intelligent about your guesses.
