I'm so impressed! This is work, and you're coming back every week for more. So proud of all of you for trying this! O0 These are puzzles my elementary GT students like to work in competition. Please see the sticky for the basic information: http://www.gottapixel.net/forum/showthread.php?t=6184
Remember if you figure it out, please send me a Private Message with your answer. Do not reveal the answer in this thread as that will end the game for the week. Everyone who gets the right answer and sends it to me between now and Friday night (10-20-06) will win these Fun Funky Numbers:

Clues:[/SIZE]
It is a three-digit whole number.
It is a square number.
It is divisible by 5.
It is not an even number.
Each of its digits is not different.
It is divisible by 9.
It is less than 500.
Its ones digit is 5.
It has only one odd digit.
Its tens digit is less than its ones digit.
[SIZE="4"]Hints:
A square number is the product you get when you multiply a whole number with itself.
You know a number is divisible by 5 if it ends in 5 or 0.
You can tell if a number is divisible by 9 if you add up its digits. If that number is divisible by 9, the original number is as well. If the number is still too large for you to tell, add the digits again until you get a number under 100. You should then be able to say if it’s divisible by 9.
Try writing 3 lines on your paper and putting possible numbers under each. Mark out numbers as you go ‘til you get the answer. Check this out to see what I mean: http://www.gottapixel.net/gallery/showphoto.php/photo/24614/cat/500/ppuser/5668
I sure hope all of you continue to play. I love getting those PMs and bragging about you in this thread. That means all of you who played before and have the prize still need to jump in there and send me a PM as soon as you figure it out. If you haven’t played before, now’s a good time to try this. Let’s see how active we can make this thread! The puzzles are great, but it's YOU, the players, who make it work! I want to give these Fun Funky Numbers away!
Oh, if you do use the Fun Funky Numbers in a LO, please post it in our gallery and put a link back here. We'd all love to see what you're making, and we don't want to miss a layout!
Have a Funky Good Time with this puzzle!
