# How to construct a 3×3 Magic Square for a Given Total

Let the given Number be 63. We will get to the followingÂ 3 X 3 Magic-Total 63.

[table id=construct-magic-square-for-given-total-63__3x3 /]

1. Let us do 3 x 3 magic square with Magic Sum of 63.
2. From 63, minus 15 ( the row total of 3×3 base magic square. (63-15=48)
3. Divide 48 by 3(since we have decided to do 3×3 magic square (48/3=16).
4. Add one to this (16+1=17)
5. Now start constructing a 3 x 3 magic square with 17 as the beginning number and (Top row middle â€“ Just in the place of 1).

Note:

• For constructing 3×3 magic square -15, then divide by 3, then add 1.
• For constructing 4×4 magic square -34, then divide by 4, then add 1. and
• For constructing 5×5 magic square -65, then divide by 5, then add 1.

While dividing by 3 or 4 or 5, if any fraction comes, put that fraction in all the squares. You should not delete or make it decimal.
