Hey all, Here is a little fun puzzle that is driving me nuts. :) I have a 7 box by 7 box square. Row 1 (A) Row 2 (B) etc Columns go by 1, 2 etc. Directions: Complete this square with the integers from 1-48 that are NOT multiples of 7. Each Horizontal, Vertical, and Diagonal must add up to 175. A5 = 42 B2 = 35 B4 = 14 C3 = 28 C4 = 21 D1 = 7 G2 = 49 Can anyone figure out the rest of the problem. It may be easier to solve if you make a table on Microsoft Word or something and place those numbers in. I know there has to be some formula, but I cant figure it out. If you do please email me at burkhot@bgnet.bgsu.edu Thanks.
