Medium Kakurasu

A 5 by 5 Kakurasu is the everyday size: enough cells that you balance a row target against the column targets that cross it. Every puzzle has exactly one shading, and it prints on the second page.

Larger grids have more cells to weigh. Every puzzle has one solution.

5×5 grid. Shade cells so each row and column of shaded squares sums to its edge target.

Two pages: the puzzle and its shaded answer. Every puzzle has one solution, checked by the same engine as our KDP studio.
