A number puzzle 2009-05-17
From Gita:
Ok, we really need help for a homework problem due on Monday morning
I've been trying for 2 hours and can't figure it out---if I can't I'm not sure
how my son can....We've been given a puzzle with the following rules:
--The sum of each side must equal 15
--We can only use the numbers 1,2,3,4,5,6,7, 8
--A number can be used only once
(Hint: Think of all combinations of 3 numbers = 15)
--The puzzle looks like this:

_____ _______ ______

_____               ______

_____ _______ ______
