0 Logophobic Posted August 27, 2016 Report Share Posted August 27, 2016 I think 9 is not less than 5, and the difference between 5 and 1 is not more than 4. The number I posted is the only solution and can be found logically. With the restriction that adjacent numbers have a difference of more than 4, the numbers 4 and 5 can only be adjacent to 9 and 0 respectively. The rest follows similarly.
