puzzle solution
The correct answer
A puzzle solution is the answer or method that resolves a puzzle—whether a crossword grid filled correctly, the sequence of moves that solves a Rubik's cube, or the explanation of a logic problem.
The term covers both the final answer and the steps to reach it: I found the puzzle solution online after struggling for hours.
