Queens #919 Solution
Queen positions (row, column): R1C5, R2C9, R3C6, R4C8, R5C1, R6C4, R7C2, R8C7, R9C3.
How to Solve Queens #919
The Queens 919 answer is R1C5, R2C9, R3C6, R4C8, R5C1, R6C4, R7C2, R8C7 and R9C3.
- Place the lavender queen at R1C5 and the peach queen at R2C9. The blue queen goes at R3C6.
- Use R4C8 for the gray region. The yellow region takes R5C1, while the narrow pink region uses R6C4.
- Finish with the coral queen at R7C2, the beige queen at R8C7 and the green queen at R9C3.
The columns from top to bottom are 5, 9, 6, 8, 1, 4, 2, 7, 3. Each row, column and color region contains exactly one queen. Queens in neighboring rows are at least two columns apart, so none touch diagonally.
When following the solved board, count rows downwards from the top and columns from the left. Pay particular attention to the long lavender region and the narrow pink strip: a color can extend through several rows while still receiving only one queen.
