- Each row and column of the KenKen puzzle should be filled in with a number from 1-5 exactly once.
- The bolded lines break the puzzle into multiple sections of 1-5 cells, with each section containing a target number and mathematical operation in the top left. The numbers in each section must be combined using the given operation to create the target number. For example, in the top right section made up of three cells and given the rule of 11+, the three cells should be added together to get the target number 11, but should not be a number that violates the first rule.
