Divide the grid shown to the right into more than one region so that the following rules are satisfied. 1. Each unit square lies entirely within exactly 1 region. 2. Each region is a single piece connected by the edges of its unit squares. 3. Each region contains the same number of whole unit squares. 4. Each region contains the same sum of numbers. You do not need to prove that your configuration is the only one possible; you merely need to find a configuration that works. (Note: In any other USAMTS problem, you need to provide a full proof. Only in this problem is an answer without justification acceptable.)
