- Place the numbers 1 to 8 in the eight surrounding squares of each grid.
- For the grid with middle number 12: place 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 such that each side (top, bottom, left, right) sums to 12.
- For the grid with middle number 13: arrange the numbers so each side sums to 13.
- For the grid with middle number 14: arrange the numbers so each side sums to 14.
- For the grid with middle number 15: arrange the numbers so each side sums to 15.
- Each number from 1 to 8 must be used exactly once per grid.
- The solution requires trial and adjustment to satisfy the sum condition for all four sides simultaneously in each grid.
