Here is a 8X8 square containing numbers 1 to 5 repeated four times. Can you divide the square into four similar shaped pieces such that each piece contains only one set of five numbers?
-------------------------------
| 1 | | | | | | | 1 |
-------------------------------
| 4 | 3 | | | 4 | | | |
-------------------------------
| | | | | 5 | | | 2 |
-------------------------------
| | | | | 5 | | | 2 |
-------------------------------
| 3 | | | 5 | 5 | | | |
-------------------------------
| | | | 3 | | | | |
-------------------------------
| 4 | | 2 | 2 | | | | |
-------------------------------
| 1 | | | | | 3 | 4 | 1 |
