A fun problem from openmiddle: Using the digits 1-9 each exactly once, create three 3-digit numbers where their sum is as close to 1,000 as possible. Here's why it's impossible to get exactly 1,000.

Thanks, Howie! I use this problem every year with my preservice teachers. We’ve hypothesized that 1000 was not possible but our reasoning never led to a formal proof. Thanks for sharing your proof!

These "Close to 100" and "Close to 1,000" games were a big part of Investigations Math. I do these activities for 'fun' at the end of a math period.
