the sum of my numbers is .... ?

To solve this riddle, let's break down the information that has been given:
1. The hundreds place is five less than the tens place.
2. The ones place is even more than the hundreds place.
From the given information, we can deduce that the tens place must be greater than the hundreds place by at least 5.
Let's consider the number 12:
- The tens place is 1, and the hundreds place is 2. The hundreds place is indeed five less than the tens place.
- However, the ones place is 2, which is not even more than the hundreds place.
Therefore, the number 12 does not satisfy both conditions provided in the riddle.
We can continue testing different numbers until we find one that satisfies both conditions.
Let's try the number 42:
- The tens place is 4, and the hundreds place is 2. The hundreds place is indeed five less than the tens place.
- The ones place is 2, which is even more than the hundreds place.
Since 42 satisfies both conditions, we can conclude that the number you are is 42.
