Abstract

A magic square of order n is n×n matrix containing integers in such a way that each row and column add up to the same value. We generalize this notion to that of a 5×5 matrix with the help of a special geometrical figure without having much knowledge of algebra and another branch of mathematics. As we know, from very beginning common man always attracts with square magic properties and always tries through various ways to achieve it quickly. Here, we are giving effortless way to achieve it.
