I think answer is 19 (1+4+6+8). Can't think of any other way to solve for one of the answers given.

i don't think these answeres be correct!
if x = 2i3k5m7p,
than we have:
x=2,?, 3,4,5,6,7,8
so what should be i? i can not be 1 casue we write all in oeder and if we are allowed to use them in inorder we be no sure about otheres!

then i + k + m + p = ?
