Step-By-Step Solution:
Initial Grid | |
First step - add in all possible valid pencilmarks. | |
For row 7, number 1 is only possible in cell (2,7) | ||
For box 9, Number 7 is only possible in cell (7,8) | ||
For column 4, Number 2 is only possible in cell (4,8) | ||
For box 6, candidates for 6 are all in column 7, so you can remove candidates from other blocks. | ||
Naked Pair for 4 and 9, can remove these as candidates from other cells. | ||
Naked Pair for 2 and 3, can remove these as candidates from other cells. | ||
