LEVEL 5
Naked Triple
Three cells in one house contain only the same three candidates between them.
How to find it
- Find three cells whose combined candidates contain exactly three digits.
- Confirm all three cells share one house.
- Remove those digits from every other cell in that house.
Logical demonstration
The violet cells represent the pattern; the gold cell represents the resulting placement or elimination. Verify every highlighted candidate belongs to the required houses before acting.

Common mistakes
- Using cells that do not share the required row, column, box or peer relationship.
- Removing a candidate before confirming every occurrence in the pattern.
- Confusing a possible pattern with a completed logical proof.
