I have a puzzle here that has bothered me for some
time now and I was wondering if you could help me.
If there are 9 coins arranged in a box formation.
That is 8 rows of three: the three horizontal rows,
the three vertical rows and the two diagonal rows.
They then have to be rearanged into 10 rows of 3.
I have tried for about three days and I am fed up
and I just need to know what the configuration is.
I am just desperate. IF you can help me thanks if
not i will be tortured for ever.
