Could you work it out? Not as easy as you expected? You can double check your answer with the results below.

The code is 042!

Based on clue #1 and #2, we can say that 6 is not the correct number. 

Now we know that the unlock code does not contain 6 and based on clue #3, we know that 2 and 0 are correct numbers but in the wrong position. from clue #1, 2's position should be on the right. The code is ??2.

Based on clue #5, 0's position should be on the left. The code is 0?2. 

We have to find the missing number in the middle position. Based on clue #2, the middle number has to be 4. It cannot be 1, as the statement says that the number is wrongly placed.
