Got this fairly quickly. I liked it.
That's not the only possible answer (I came up with two, this one being the other possibility):
1..5..3
8..7..9
2..4..6
1..5..3
8..7..9
2..4..6
Nice teaser!
I agree with rusfr01. I liked the puzzle though and fortunately was confident in my ability when I saw the answer was not the same as the one I got.
teaser does not say that numbers are from 1 to 9 and it also does not say that each number appears once only, so i think there can be many possibilities
dishu clearly you are dumb... the teaser does stipulate that you should place the numbers 1-9 in the grid. Also clearly the author wants you to use each number only once... DUH.
got this one inf about a min and a half... nice and fun

THIS I FOUND UNINTERESTING, NO LOGIC, JUST TRIAL AND ERROR.
VERY EASY. KEEP TRYING

Imurry,
Don't blame the designer of the puzzle if you fail to see the logic. The sum of row 2 is 24, logically row 2 much contain 7, 8 and 9, that's the only way to get 24. Row one is odds and logically since there are only three odds left, row one must contain 1, 3, 5. Using logic it all falls into place.

Nice teaser but rusfr01 is correct - the numbers 3 and 5 and 7 and 9 are interchangeable!
Fun! I got the original answer! Loved it!
I also ended up with:
1 5 3
8 7 9
2 4 6
Fun teaser though!
