We'll go through each math problem and determine which color it corresponds to based on the key:
#### 🔹 Color Key:
- Brown: 9, 10, 11, 13, 17
- Green: 2, 4, 14
- Black: 6, 8, 15, 18
- Sky Blue: 3, 5, 7, 12
Let’s solve each equation and assign the correct color.

Now, use this to color the sections:
#### 🟫 Brown (9, 10, 11, 13, 17):
- 4+7=11
- 5+6=11
- 9+2=11
- 8+3=11
- 7+6=13
- 9+4=13
- 6+4=10
- 8+1=9
- 8+9=17
- 8+2=10
- 9+1=10
- 3+6=9
- 5+9=14 → ✘ Wait: 14 is Green, not Brown!
Wait — correction:
> 5+9 = 14 → Green
> 6+8 = 14 → Green
So let's fix:
✔ Brown:
- 4+7=11
- 5+6=11
- 9+2=11
- 8+3=11
- 7+6=13
- 9+4=13
- 6+4=10
- 8+1=9
- 8+9=17
- 8+2=10
- 9+1=10
- 3+6=9
- 7+3=10
- 6+6=12 → ✘ No, 12 is Sky Blue
Wait! Let’s recheck all answers carefully.
