Nonuple-X code [Ryuki day 2] (Spoilers)

[Vimbert]

I don't understand how you get the 16 numbers in the diamond down to 7--am I just missing something incredibly obvious here?

Glad it's not just me! The game is acting like it's obvious, but I've been staring at this for what feels like a while with no clue how they want me to proceed.

Here's a hint, what do those "X"s represent? You almost have the right idea.

Multiplication? Sudoku boxes? I feel like I'm grasping at straws--even if these were accurate, how do you know what number to start with?

For anyone wondering why the code is 4901095, it's because the X's between each number should be read as multiply symbols. You want to multiply the numbers in each column with each other. Didn't realise this until working backwards from the answer.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tFbt1Fc-_nM is a good video that shows the solution - the trick is to do the puzzle solution vertically not horizontally
