CROSSCAN DOES KENKEN

Welcome to CROSSCAN DOES KENKEN

I don’t have access to the New York Times paper so we’ll start with the online easy 4x4.
Solving time: 29 seconds.

I started with placing a 2 in the 1x1 box that has a 2 in it. Nice job! I then filled in the other numbers. The puzzle has 4 1’s, 4 2’s, 4 3’s and 4 4’s in it. Just like last week.

Answer of the day: 3x2x3 = 18.

KenKenese alert: 2/1 = 1. Again!

What I liked: Addition, subtraction, multiplication and division all used.

What I hated: The four corners only used 1 and 2. What’s wrong with 3 and 4?
