Ready for some questions in Math? There are three age categories of questions today. Be sure to email the answers to me at thogate@thehomeschoolmagazine.com.

Okay, here are your questions:
- Elementary (Grades 1-5) How many addition signs should be put between digits of the number 987654321 and where should we put them to get a total of 99?
- Middle Grades (Grades 6-8) Chip said to Dale "If you give me one acorn, then we will have an equal number of acorns." Dale replied with delight "If you give me one acorn, then I will have double the number you have!" What was the total number of acorns they had in their tree? How many did Chip have and how many did Dale have?
- High school and adults: It is an odd number with three digits. All the digits are different and add up to 12. The difference between the first two digits equals the difference between the last two digits. What is the digit?
Alrighty, email me your answers. Also on the email, I will need your name, age, state you live in, and email address. I'm looking forward to hearing from you!
