Turn the numbers inside out to make a magic square

Wednesday 01 October 2008 10:59

This diagram shows the four corner numbers of a 4x4 magic square. What makes the square remarkable is the fact that not only is a constant of 242 generated when counting along each row, vertical column and long diagonal, but the same constant is also produced when all 16 cell numbers are reversed, such that 96 turns into 69, 45 into 54 and so on.

Reconstruct the complete square using the following list of numbers: 25 37 39 43 46 57 59 62 76 82 84 98 52 73 93 34 64 75 95 26 67 28 48 and 89.
