Sam Squirrel's Activity Page 06

Hello, this is Sam squirrel.

This month there is an interesting puzzle.

The human Father showed this to the grandchildren one day and I thought that you would like to try it.

It's called a 'Magic square'.     Square because it is the same size along as it is up and down.


The magic you will have to work out for yourself!

4	3	8
9	5	1
?	7	6

See if you can work out which number should replace the ?

I will give you a hint, try adding up the numbers in any straight line, up or down or across.

Good luck !

See you again.
