Question

Make a 4 x 4 magic square with the digit 35. So that the sum of each column and row and diagonal equal to 35.

Answer 1

Answer:

sum = [4 * (4^2 + 1)] / 2.

sum = [4 * (16 + 1)] / 2.

sum = (4 * 17) / 2.

sum = 68 / 2.

The magic constant for a 4x4 square is 68/2, or 34.

All rows, columns, and diagonals must add up to this number.
