SOLUTION

HOW TO PLAY: Sudoku Triples consists of three standard Sudoku panels sharing one set of 3-by-3 boxes. Each row, column and set of 3-by-3 boxes must contain the numbers 1 through 9 without repetition. Each 3-by-3 box in the shared section of the three panels is filled in identically. Therefore, finding a number in one box in the shared section advances the other boxes.
