Working together, solve the equations shown below. Use the solutions you get to complete the magic square. In a magic square the sum of all numbers in any row, column, or diagonal must be the same.

Equations to solve:
x + (-15) = -4	w + (-2) = 5
-18z = -216
m - (-48) = 57	39s = 195
22t = -176	d - (-417) = 427
