LinkedIn Mini Sudoku #278 Hints
Begin by scanning each row, column and 2x3 box for the most given numbers. On this 6x6 Mini Sudoku many boxes and rows already have multiple givens — use those to reduce candidates quickly.
Row 2 has three starting numbers (R2C3=2, R2C4=3, R2C5=4). That leaves only {1,5,6} for the remaining cells in that row — cross-check those with their columns to find single candidates.
The box covering rows 3–4 and columns 4–6 already contains three givens (R3C4=6, R3C6=5, R4C4=4). That restricts the remaining three cells in that box to {1,2,3} and creates easy elimination when you cross-check row and column candidates.
After eliminating digits seen in intersecting rows and columns, some cells become single-candidate. Focus on those immediately — a single placement there often cascades and unlocks several neighboring cells.
When a candidate for a box can only sit in one row (or column) of that box, you can eliminate that candidate from the same row/column outside the box. Use that pattern to advance quickly on LinkedIn Mini Sudoku #278 (2026-05-16 15:00:29).
