The grid is seperated into four 3zx3 boxes.

Rules :
Each box can only use the numbers in the box already.

Goal:
Each column has all three numbers already in the box. This is the easy one.

Under each number (1,2,3,4) in the first row, the rest of the numbers need to be under them in the second row.
So under the three 1's, there needs to be a 2,3 and a 4. Under the three 2's needs a 1,3, and 4. ect.

Same rules applies for row 3.

This may not be the place to post this, but I have been wracking my brain for hours trying to figure this out.

I have 4 groups of 3 models to paint. I want 3 blue models, 3 orange, 3 red, and 3 green.

I want to seperate the models into 4 groups of 3 with 3 different colors in each group. Then using the colors of each group. paint a strip and a dot. so that group of 3 uses its colors completely.

But like wise, I want a red model, with a blue strip, orange stripe and green strip. Same for dot.

This sis the best way i can explain it, and its probably mathmatically imposible, but I wanted to check with other people first
