Yay! You've found it! The most fun game on the web! :dance3
This month, Terry will be sending you sparkly silver numerals! They're perfect for using with any of my Classic Romance kits. If you play the game every week during February, you'll get the full alpha at the end of the month!

We're having fun sharing... So who's watching the Olympics?
I LOVED the opening ceremonies. Canada really did it up well!
How to play:
Just figure out the one right answer to the puzzle, send a PM to withnuts (http://www.gottapixel.net/forum/private.php?do=newpm&u=9480) with the right answer, and she'll send you a link to a zip file which includes a full set of numerals 0-9. The file is password protected, so she'll give you the password, too. :) Even though you'll only win the numerals once during the month, make sure to come back each week and continue playing.
Bonus Prizes:
If you like these numerals, make sure to play over and over. A new game comes out every Saturday. Every person who turns in the right answer every week this month will win the full alphabet!
Also, at the end of each month, I'll be giving away 2 free kits of the winners' choice. We love our new players, so we've decided we'd have a special drawing just for those of you who are playing this game for the very first time. :dance3 So, if this is the first time you're playing, please let Terry know when you send her your answer and she'll mark "new" by your name. Then at the end of the month, I'll draw 2 names rather than 1! What fun to get an extra free kit just for solving a math puzzle! The more you play, the better your chances of winning. ^-^ Also, creating layouts with the number frames and posting links to your layouts in this thread increases your chances.
(Team members, please continue to play as always, and you can still win the numerals and the full alpha, but the free kit will go to someone not on the Gotta Pixel team.)

For this puzzle, you might want to read *MY HINTS PAGE* (http://www.gottapixel.net/forum/showthread.php?t=28949). Check the hints if you're not sure about prime numbers, square roots, or any of those things we haven't thought about since math class.
Clues:
1. It is a 5-digit whole number.
2. The sum of the 5 different digits is 22.
3. The number is divisible by 2, but not 3, and by 4, but not 5.
4. The tens digit, the thousands digit, and the ten-thousands digit are odd prime numbers. (Remember, prime numbers are greater than 1.)
5. The ones digit is the sum of the tens and the hundreds digits.
6. The thousands digit is the sum of the ones and the hundreds digit.
7. The ten-thousands digit is 2 greater than the hundreds digit and 2 less than the tens digit.
8. There are no zeros in this number.
9. The tens and the ones digit makes a 2-digit number that is the product of (the sum of the tens and the ten-thousands digits) and the (product of the hundreds and the thousands digits). parenthesis for clarity
10. The difference between the ten-thousands digit and the thousands digit is the same as the difference between the tens digit and the hundreds digit.
11. The thousands digit, the tens digit, and the ones digits are consecutive, but not in that order.
How my students solve these puzzles: Try writing 5 lines on your paper and putting possible numbers under each. Mark out numbers as you go ‘til you get the answer. Check THIS (http://www.gottapixel.net/forum/showthread.php?t=28950)out to see what I mean.
When you solve the puzzle, send Terry a Private Message with your answer. Click withnuts (http://www.gottapixel.net/forum/private.php?do=newpm&u=9480) to send. Do not reveal the answer in this thread as that will end the game for the week. This puzzle will go through the week, and I'll post another one next Saturday.
