Step-By-Step Solution:
Initial Grid | |
First step - add in all possible valid pencilmarks. | |
Number 7 is the only value possible in cell (6,4). | ||
Number 2 is the only value possible in cell (2,5). | ||
Number 8 is the only value possible in cell (5,5). | ||
Number 5 is the only value possible in cell (8,5). | ||
Number 3 is the only value possible in cell (7,4). | ||
Number 6 is the only value possible in cell (9,4). | ||
Number 5 is the only value possible in cell (1,4). | ||
Number 9 is the only value possible in cell (4,6). | ||
Number 1 is the only value possible in cell (9,6). | ||
Number 3 is the only value possible in cell (2,7). | ||
Number 1 is the only value possible in cell (1,7). | ||
Number 5 is the only value possible in cell (3,7). | ||
Number 2 is the only value possible in cell (9,7). | ||
Number 7 is the only value possible in cell (4,7). | ||
For column 1, Number 8 is only possible in cell (1,9) | ||
For row 9, number 9 is only possible in cell (2,9) | ||
For column 9, Number 8 is only possible in cell (9,1) | ||
For column 9, Number 9 is only possible in cell (9,3) | ||
For box 3, candidates for 4 are all in column 7, so you can remove candidates from other blocks. | ||
Candidates for 7 in boxes 1 and 2 force the candidates in box 3 to be in the remaining line. | ||
Naked Pair for 3 and 5, can remove these as candidates from other cells. | ||
For row 1, number 5 is only possible in cell (4,1) | ||
For box 2, Number 3 is only possible in cell (4,2) | ||
Number 6 is the only value possible in cell (8,2). | ||
Number 9 is the only value possible in cell (1,2). | ||
Number 7 is the only value possible in cell (5,2). | ||
Number 9 is the only value possible in cell (5,1). | ||
Number 4 is the only value possible in cell (3,2). | ||
Number 6 is the only value possible in cell (2,1). | ||
Number 8 is the only value possible in cell (6,2). | ||
Number 4 is the only value possible in cell (2,8). | ||
Number 8 is the only value possible in cell (4,8). | ||
Number 3 is the only value possible in cell (9,8). | ||
Number 5 is the only value possible in cell (5,8). | ||
Number 1 is the only value possible in cell (7,8). | ||
Number 4 is the only value possible in cell (7,1). | ||
Number 2 is the only value possible in cell (6,1). | ||
