How to use our Magic Square Printables
What are Magic Squares?
A magic square is a grid of numbers where every row, column, and diagonal adds up to the same total, called the “magic sum.” Each number appears only once in the grid, and the challenge is to figure out which number goes in each empty box.
How Do you Find the Magic Sum?
If any complete row, column, or diagonal is given, add those numbers together to find the magic sum. If no complete line is shown, you may need to use trial and error with the available numbers, or calculate the magic sum using the formula for that grid size.
How Do you Solve a Magic Square Puzzle?
To solve a magic square puzzle, fill in the missing numbers so every row, column, and diagonal adds up to the same magic number — using each number only once! Use the given clues to get started, then work through the rest using logic and magic squares math skills to find the magic number!
