Zero-less Pandigital Products : Prime 234
By Oyler
In the clues P, Q and R are a two digit, three digit and four digit number respectively that between them contain all of the digits from 1 to 9 with P prime such that PQR = X_Y_Z where X_Y_Z is a nine digit number split into three groups of three digits that again contains all of the digits from 1 to 9. For example 29 x 871 x 5364 = 135,489,276. Across entries are in capitals and X¢ denotes the reverse of X. All the entries are different, the normal rules of algebra apply and there are no zeros in the grid.
