Puzzle #1
For problems 1 & 2, you are given four 'squares' of numbers for each problem. The same mathematical function(s) are applied to each square in each problem, but problems 1 & 2 each use different functions. One of the numbers in the last square in each problem has been replaced with a ?, & you must determine what number should be there instead. 7 3 8 8 5 0 6 ? 6 3 4 2 6 4 9 5
Reveal Answer
