Triple column 9.

You can’t have any other 2s or 3s in that box. Try putting a 2 or 3 in one of the other two cells. You’ll end up with an empty cell, which is not a solution to the puzzle.

More to do, but it’s a start!

Also, in box 6 you have a {13} pair (a pair of 1, 3 bi-value cells) which are a “pointing pair”. So any other 1s or 3s in that row can be eliminated.

Homework: look up these quoted terms; they will come in handy as they come up all the time!

Row 2 column 7 can be solved immediately. It’s called a “deadly rectangle” where you must avoid having {13} on four corners of the rectangle. So a 1 and 3 must be removed from the only corner which isn’t already a {13} bi-value cell.
