Composite, Proportional (2)

 

Take 1x number from a cell of the first grid with 4x the same 4x4 in 6x6 magic square and add number x 36 from the same cell of the second grid to produce a 12x12 composite magic square.

Each 1/2 row/column/diagonal gives 1/2 of the magic sum and the 12x12 magic square is 6x6 compact. In the 12x12 magic square are 4 proportional 4x4 panmagic squares.

 

 

I have used method composite, proportional (2) to construct

12x12, 18x18, 24x24, 30x30a and 30x30b
