Answer: A) 2, 7, 9

Explanation:

In a sudoku puzzle, there are three rules:

  1. Each vertical line must contain the numbers 1 - 9, with no duplicates
  2. Each horizontal line must contain the numbers 1 - 9, with no duplicates
  3. Each 3 x 3 box must contain the numbers 1 - 9, with no duplicates.

Using logic:

2 must go in the 1st box. It cannot go in the 2nd or 3rd shaded square because 2 is already in that 3 x 3 box.

That leaves the 2nd and 3rd shaded square.

9 cannot go in the 2nd shaded square because 9 is already in that vertical line.

Therefore, 9 must go in the 3rd shaded square.

That leaves the 2nd shaded square.

7 must go in the 2nd shaded square because it is the only number remaining (2 and 9 have already been placed in the other squares).
