Geocache Description:


 

The geocache is not at the posted coordinates. You must solve the puzzle below to find the coordinates.

This puzzle is inspired by GC2RRYQ and also by the song "It's not a game, it's a lifestyle", which helped keep me sane during the early days of COVID. Belinda may be singing about bingo, but she could just as easily be singing about geocaching!

The card above is a standard North American bingo layout. The letters A - X are between 1 and 75. No two letters are equal to the same number. Each number on the right is the product of the numbers in that row. Each number across the bottom is the product of the numbers in that column. When calculating products for the middle row and the middle column, do not use the star. The yellow squares are prime numbers. The white squares are not prime numbers.

You can check your answer below. Enter your answer as the letters ordered from smallest to largest with a "." after every 3rd letter. For example if your solution was A=13, B=3, C=7, D=15, E=2, F=24, G=30, H=21, I=29, J=19, K=31, L=43, M=41, N=38, O=59, P=56, Q=46, R=47, S=57, T=75, U=61, V=63, W=67, X=71 you would enter EBC.ADJ.HFI.GKN.MLQ.RPS.OUV.WXT .

You can validate your puzzle solution with certitude.
