Group (Ctrl G ) each set of square, circle and numeral. Create three duplicates of each group.

Bring the new shapes to the front (Ctrl F), and position them over the duplicate square/circle/numeral groups as shown. Use the Object Alignment menu (Arrange) to align the new shapes Top vertically and Left horizontally.

Select each shape/group, and from the Arrange menu select Combine Shapes > Intersect Shapes.

TIP: Here's a shortcut. Select the object and the group, hold down the Alt key and press r c i (Alt r opens the Arrange menu, c selects Combine Objects and i selects Intersect Shapes.

You should now have four numbers with sections removed as shown.

Repeat this process on the other sets. I'll wait patiently while you do this.

 

 

How's it coming? OK I can wait. I've got all day. Zzzzzzzzzzzzz.
