I'm thinking of a number that has 6 digits. There is an even number in the ten thousands place and tens place. There is a 9 in the thousands place and a 7 in the hundreds place. There is a 0 in the ones place. The number is less than 700,000 and greater than 600,000. The 6 digits add to 36. What's my number??

No guessing needed here. There are two possible answers. You already have been given three of the digits, and it's easy to see that the first digit is a 6. Given that all digits add to 36 this means the missing digits must add to 36-9-7-0-6=14. You have been told these two missing digits are both even, so there are two possible answers - can you figure out what they are?

LOL...ebaines...you always ruin the fun by giving real answers!

Keep up the good work.
