Problem 30

A magic square of order \(n\) is a square arrangement of the positive integers 1 through \(n^{2}\) such that the sum of the integers along each row, column, and diagonal is a constant \(k\), called the magic constant. Figure 4.30 shows two magic squares, one of order 3 and the other of order \(4 .\) Prove that the magic constant of a magic square of order \(n\) is \(n\left(n^{2}+1\right) / 2\).
