A Calcudoku Math Puzzle
This is not going to be a contest to win rewards, however, please feel free to solve it. The answer to this puzzle is attached but try to solve it without looking at the answers. This might be difficult for some but easier for others. I have no clue how it works! Good luck!
Calcudoku is a combination of an arithmetic and logic puzzle. The rules are the same as sudoku, but you get clues. Every 'cage', a group of cells printed with a thick border, has printed the result of arithmetic operation on all the numbers in the cage. With these clues you have to complete the puzzle.
Complete the puzzle by filling the empty squares.
The rules are:
1. The numbers you can use are from 1 to 6.
2. In each row and in each column each number can appear only once (just like in Sudoku).
3. Each "cage" (the blocks with the thick border) shows a result and an operation (addition: +, subtraction: -, multiplication: x, or division: /). The operation applied to the numbers in the cage should produce the result shown.
4. A number may be used more than once in the same cage, but not more than once in each row or column.
In case of subtraction or division, arrange the numbers from the cage from largest to
smallest. For example: the result is 1- (operation is subtract and the numbers in the
cage are 1, 2, 4 and the then you need to arrange them into 4 - 2 - 1.
Let's practice using the Spoiler Box. Open a message and then click on the backwards "P" and then click on the Spoiler from the drop down menu. Place your answer in the Spoiler area and then save your message!

Hi @messenabout are you saying that you don't understand how to complete this puzzle? If so, I wish I could help you but I have no clue how these work. If you want to give it a try I will tag @Diamond Lim and she can explain how it works.

Hello there! 👋
This puzzle is same like Sudoku but little different have added +/-/x/÷.
Then you make sure following black blocks first and then can see what's calculate symbol and equal total number on top left of block. (Especially you can solve to follow two black blocks easier) 😉
For example : Following horizontal black blocks first then see 9 and + on top left of block. 3 is answer already then the answer is 6. So 3+6=9. 😄
Another example : Following right three black blocks then see 10 and x on top left of block. 5 is answer already but you cannot answer 5 (any number except which number does not) on same horizontal and vertical blocks as you must solve like Sudoku and calculate is incorrect. You must answer what's different one number on same horizontal and vertical blocks and solve to be calculated stable answer is 1 and 2. So 2x1x5=10. 😄
