Answer:

(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
