Number Puzzles Questions

How ?

7*6 = 4 2
9*9 = 8 1
5*3 = 1 5
6*2 = 1 2

From all the hints given, 

only 042 satisfies and it unlocks the key.

As you move down, the numbers represent multiples of 12,subtracting 1 for the first step,adding 2 for the second, subtracting 3 for the third, adding 4 for the next ect.ect

The given number puzzle can be soved in two ways.

Logic 1 ::

Row 1  - 2 x 3 = 6 , 6 x 3 = 18

Row 2  - 4 x 5 = 20 , 20 x 5 = 100

Row 3  - 3 x 7 = 21 , 21 x 7 = 147

Hence, the missing number could be 3.

Logic 2 ::

Row 1 - 6 x (2+1) = 18

Row 2 - 20 x (4+1) = 100

Row 3 - 21 x (6+1) = 147

Hence, the missing number could be 6.

Therefore, 3 or 6 is the right answer.

Here in the above puzzle,

Consider the columns.

Column 1 = Row 1 + Row 2 = Row 3

That is,

44 + 12 = 56

Similarly,

48 + 30 = 78

Hence, 14 + 51 = 65.

Hence, the missing number in the given puzzle = 65.

The given puzzle follows a logic that,

2 + 10 = 24 => 2 + 10 = 12 x 2 = 24

3 + 6 = 27 => 3 + 6 = 9 x 3 = 27

7 + 2 = 63 = 7 + 2 = 9 x 7 = 63

Similarly, 5 + 3 = 40 => 5 + 3 = 8 x 5 = 40.

Observe that in each column, square of sum of digits in the first row = Respective second row elements.

In the same way, square of sum of digits in the second row = Respective third row elements.

=> 6+42=102=100

=> 4+92=132=169

=> 8+12=92=81.

Add together values in corresponding positions of the top two crosses, and put the result in the lower left cross.

Calculate the difference between values in corresponding positions of the top two crosses, and put the result in the lower right cross.

Finally add together the values in corresponding positions of the lower two crosses to give the values in the central cross
