Question 1166185: The grid below contains one large square divided into four small squares. There is one circle on each corner of the smaller squares, so 9 in total
(I can't provide a photo of the figure so hopefully my description is understandable).
Q)Show that, up to rotation and reflection, there is only one way to fill the
empty circles with the numbers 1 to 9 so that the sums of the numbers at
the vertices of all five squares are the same.
Thanks!
