Arrange the numbers 1 to 19 in the circles, so all the rows of 3 numbers between O (big o) sums to 23
Example :
a---b---c
/ \ / \
d e f g
/ \ / \
h---i---j---k---l
\ / \ /
m n o p
\ / \ /
q---r---s
a+b+c = a+e+j = c+f+j = 23, and so on....
Note :
There are 2 solutions, if we rule out reflections and rotations.
Bonus Puzzle : How if all the rows of 3 numbers between O (big o) sums to 22,24,25,26,27,28,29,31,32,33,34,35,36, 37, and 38. I have checked all the solutions by computer, and all those sums have solutions.
