I found this one very hard. I could not find a solution that did not involve a chain.

After the basics:

Code:

+-------------+-------------------+--------------+
| 6   8   347 | 5      347  2     | 1    9  37   |
| 5   17  347 | 1347   8    9     | 37   6  2    |
| 239 127 379 | 6      37   137   | 4    8  5    |
+-------------+-------------------+--------------+
| 289 27  6   | 3789   379  5     | 3789 14 14   |
| 89  3   789 | 4789   1    478   | 5    2  6    |
| 1   4   5   | 3789   2    6     | 3789 37 378  |
+-------------+-------------------+--------------+
| 4   6   1   | 3789   5    378   | 2    37 3789 |
| 7   9   38  | 2      6    14    | 38   5  14   |
| 38  5   2   | 134789 3479 13478 | 6    14 3789 |
+-------------+-------------------+--------------+
