There are two common factors of 10 and 14, but only one of them will put only numbers from 1 to 12 in the first column. Do you know what that factor is? If you do, figure out where to put the factors of 22, 66, 15 and so forth to make this puzzle function like a multiplication table. Each number from 1 to 12 can only appear once in the first column and once in the top row. You can do this!
