This is actually part of a crossword puzzle book and was stuck on this problem. It is a division problem but it is using letters substituted for the numbers. The answer can be a word or phrase, as long as it uses all the letters.

There is no trick or formula for this. You just have to try stuff, keeping track as you go (so you don't repeat yourself). It just takes time and a fair amount of scratch-paper.

Hi. I would have expected the answer to be a listing showing the digits used. Is there more to the puzzle than that?
