Cross Math

Fill the grid so every equation adds up

Cross Math is the number crossword — a grid of digits laced together by arithmetic. Fill the empty tiles with digits 1–9 so every row and every column equals its target. Each tile answers to two equations at once, so a single solution has to satisfy them all.

How to play

  1. Every row and column is an equation ending in a target after the =.
  2. Read each line strictly left to right — no "multiply first".
  3. Fill the blank tiles with digits 1–9; numbers may repeat.
  4. A target turns green when its equation checks out, red when it does not.
