I found this calendar with daily math puzzles. Based on the first three puzzles it seems to be much easier than the math challenges here, and require no advanced mathematics. The answer is always a three-digit number, and the answers to all 24 puzzles together create a larger puzzle.

Thanks for sharing this puzzle link.

Have you tried any of them yet?
 
Yes, I solved a few. I wonder if it is necessary to have all 24 to solve the overall puzzle.
