Squares R5C2 and R6C2 in column 2 form a simple naked pair. These 2 squares both contain the 2 possibilities <59>. Since each of the squares must contain one of the possibilities, they can be eliminated from the other squares in the column.

R1C2 - removing <59> from <1569> leaving <16>

R9C2 - removing <59> from <1569> leaving <16>

Squares R2C3 and R7C3 in column 3 form a simple naked pair. These 2 squares both contain the 2 possibilities <69>. Since each of the squares must contain one of the possibilities, they can be eliminated from the other squares in the column.

R1C3 - removing <69> from <15679> leaving <157>

R3C3 - removing <69> from <5679> leaving <57>

R8C3 - removing <9> from <1459> leaving <145>

R9C3 - removing <69> from <14569> leaving <145>

Squares R2C9 and R3C9 in block 3 form a simple naked pair. These 2 squares both contain the 2 possibilities <46>. Since each of the squares must contain one of the possibilities, they can be eliminated from the other squares in the block.

R3C7 - removing <46> from <4679> leaving <79>

Squares R3C1<59>, R3C3<57> and R3C7<79> in row 3 form a comprehensive naked triplet. These 3 squares can only contain the 3 possibilities <579>. Since each of the squares must contain one of the possibilities, they can be eliminated from the other squares in the row.

R3C5 - removing <59> from <4569> leaving <46>

Intersection of row 3 with block 1. The value <5> only appears in one or more of squares R3C1, R3C2 and R3C3 of row 3. These squares are the ones that intersect with block 1. Thus, the other (non-intersecting) squares of block 1 cannot contain this value.

R1C3 - removing <5> from <157> leaving <17>

Squares R3C5, R3C9, R2C5 and R2C9 form a Type-1 Unique Rectangle on <46>.

R2C5 - removing <46> from <469> leaving <9>
