Also, any starting number is possible. For example the following sequence can be used to form an order 3 magic square according to the Siamese method (9 boxes): 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45 (the magic sum gives 75, for all rows, columns and diagonals).
d() is the number of positive divisors of n, including 1 and n itself; σ() is the sum of the positive divisors of n, including 1 and n itselfs() is the sum of the proper divisors of n, including 1 but not n itself; that is, s(n) = σ(n) − n
Lastly the four rhomboids that form elongated crosses also give the magic sum: 23+1+9+24+8, 15+1+17+20+12, 14+1+18+13+19, 7+1+25+22+10. Such squares with 1 at the center cell are also called God's magic squares in Islamic amulet design, where the center cell is either left blank or filled with God's name.

In the simple case of a function of one variable, say, h(x), we can solve an equation of the form h(x) = c for some constant c by considering what is known as the inverse function of h. Given a function h : A → B, the inverse function, denoted h −1 and defined as h −1 : B → A, is a function such that

1,026: 102 + 6 x 19 = 102 + 114 = 216 = 27 × 8. Subtract the last two digits from 8 times the rest. (Works because 108 is divisible by 27.) 6,507: 65 × 8 − 7 = 520 − 7 = 513 = 27 × 19. 28: It is divisible by 4 and by 7. [6] 140: it is divisible by 4 and by 7. 29: Add three times the last digit to the rest.
