We start with the obvious: block (4,3)=6 and block (2,1)=4.
Now, blocks (1,4) and (2,4) must be 7 and 5 since this is the only combination that can satisfy the operations in the 4th column.
Note that between blocks (1,2) and (2,20 there is a division operation. This suggests that the only numbers that can occupy these blocks are either 8 or 9, since these are the only non-prime numbers left in the first ten digits. If block (1,2)=9 then block (2,2) =3 and (3,2)=0. However, this implies that (3,3)=-1 which is ...
