Take any four numbers (single digits) and add them together.

Arrange the original four digits in any order to form a four digit number.

Subtract the sum from this four-digit number, and you should get another four digit number.

Hide any one of the four digits in this new number (except a zero) and reveal the other three digits.

How can you determine the value of the hidden number?
