Geocache Description:


LocknLock

Please read this completely as this is a different kind of puzzle. It is also easy to solve and a unique cache.

First of all, the cache really IS at this location- but unless you solve this easy puzzle, you will NOT be able to sign the log and claim the smiley. To claim this as found :

1. Solve the puzzle below (rules supplied- and hint, if necessary).
2. Input the answer into the Geocheck. A correct answer will give you additional information you will      need to log this cache. The cache itself is easy to find.
3. Once you solve the puzzle, input these coords to get a correct Geocheck answer:

N38 46.(A1)(B2)(C3) W75 17.(A3)(B3)(C1)

Note: The posted coords will NOT give you a correct Geocheck answer.

4. You MUST sign the log to claim a smiley! (Bring a pen.)


The puzzle and rules:



Puzzle Rules:
- Complete the grid with every digit from 1 to 9.
- When completed all of the sums must be correct.
- The sums are solved strictly left to right, up to down, and the normal order of mathematical
    operations is ignored.
- For example 2 + 5 x 9 is calculated as 2 + 5 first, then x 9 = 63.
- There are no ÷ 1 in the puzzle.
- There are no x 1 in the puzzle .
- At no point will any calculation go below zero.
- For solving the puzzle, ignore the 3 numbers & letters on the outside of the box. They are just for
    filling in the coords.



Please- NO spoilers in your logs about the cache itself!

Have fun with this one!
