A magic square is an array of numbers having the same number of rows and columns and the sumof numbers in each row, column or diagonal being the same. Fill in the blank cells of the following magic squares:
(i) We know that
Considering diagonal values 13 + 12 + 11 = 36
So we get
No. in the first cell of the first row = 36 – (8 + 13) = 15
No. in the first cell of the second row = 36 – (15 + 11) = 10
No. in the third cell of the second row = 36 – (10 + 12) = 14
No. in the second cell of the third row = 36 – (8 + 12) = 16
No. in the third cell of the third row = 36 – (11 + 16) = 9
(ii) We know that
Considering diagonal values 20 + 19 + 18 + 17 + 16 = 90
So we get
No. in the second cell of the first row = 90 – (22 + 6 + 13 + 20) = 29
No. in the first cell of the second row = 90 – (22 + 9 + 15 + 16) = 28
No. in the fifth cell of the second row = 90 – (28 + 10 + 12 + 19) = 21
No. in the fifth cell of the third row = 90 – (9 + 11 + 18 + 25) = 27
No. in the fifth cell of the fourth row = 90 – (15 + 17 + 24 + 26) = 8
No. in the second cell of the fifth row = 90 – (29 + 10 + 11 + 17) = 23
No. in the third cell of the fifth row = 90 – (6 + 12 + 18 + 24) = 30
