Find the number below 50, a multiple of 4 the sum of its didgits is 5
a 2 - digit number a multiple of 7 the product of it's digits is 16
a square number below 50, the sum of its digits is 9

This is all i got to.

We have a two-digit number, the sum of its digits is 5.

There are only five such numbers: .\begin{Bmatrix}14 \\ 23 \\ 32 \\ 41 \\ 50 \end{Bmatrix}

Only one is a multiple of 4: .32

As for how to solve it, just guess. Trust me, it's MUCH faster than using algebra to solve them. I generally started with the second clue and worked out all the possible combinations, and checked them against the second clue.
