The thing to remember is that the letters U and N are the same number in all parts of the equation… so you can start by testing the first column… N + N = E (the ones column).
If N = 1, then 1 + 1 = 2 …. there is no 2 available in your set of numbers, so the N cannot be 1.
Could N be 4? Maybe… that would make E = 8… but then U would have to be 2 or 6, and neither of those numbers are available. Make sense? If so, you should be able to solve this using just this help. If not, scroll down a bit for a more complete answer….
—————————————————————————–
N + N = E : 7 + 7 = 14 so E = 4
1 (carried from the ones column) + U + U = 7 (or 17). The only solution that makes sense is 1+3+3 = 7 so U = 3
1 (carried from the 10s column) + S + F = [[D]]3
The only numbers we have for S, F, and D are 1, 5, and 8. But we carried the one from the 10s column, so we know that D is the 1. Turns out S and F are interchangable!

837+537 = 1374
s=8 sun=837
u=3 fun=537
n=7 dune=1374
d=1
f=5
e=4
+537

1374
s=8 u=3 n=7 f=5 d=1 e=4
there ya go.
+ 724
________
1248
S=5
U=2
N=4
F=7
D=1
E=8
I took what we did know, that F and S had to add up to a double digit, that U had to be twice N and N had to be half of E and plugged in the numbers. Hope that helps!
