Question

Study the given pattern carefully and select the number that is the sum of A and B. (Different operations when performed on the two numbers given in each of the squares in figure X yield the same result A. Similarly, different operations when performed on the two numbers given in each of the squares in figure Y yield the same result B.)

Figures X and Y, each with three squares of numbers around A or B

The correct answer is

63

In each figure the three outer squares hold two numbers each, and three different operations on those pairs (division, addition and multiplication) all give the same number in the centre.

Step 1 — Figure X: \(945 \div 35 = 27\), \(12 + 15 = 27\), \(9 \times 3 = 27\). So A = 27.

Step 2 — Figure Y: \(864 \div 24 = 36\), \(32 + 4 = 36\), \(2 \times 18 = 36\). So B = 36.

Step 3 — \(A + B = 27 + 36 = 63\).

51, 49 and 75 would each need a different value of A or B, and no consistent operation on the pairs in the squares gives such values, since division, addition and multiplication already agree on 27 and 36.

63 option is correct.
