A magic square is a grid of numbers where the values in each row, column, and diagonal add up to the same sum, known as the magic constant.

The puzzle becomes complex when there’s a missing number in the square, and your task is to fill it in such a way that it maintains the magic constant.

The challenge here lies in understanding how magic squares work. For instance, if you have a 3×3 Magic Square, remember that the magic constant is always 15.

Therefore, you must carefully study the rows, columns and diagonals to figure out what number will maintain this constant sum of 15.
