Solve this math sequence...

[GoldCoastSaint]

1+4=5
2+5=12
3+6=21
4+7=32
5+8=45
6+9=60
7+10=77
8+11=96

breh you have to find the answer for the numbers 4-7 before you get the answer for 8

You're assuming 4-7 are missing. In that case it works the same way:

The answer is 96. It can also be 19 if it's a trick question.

 

[L&HH]

40.


EDIT:

01 + 04 = 05

02 + 05 = 12

03 + 06 = 21

08 + 11 = ??



Add the colors together = Answer on the line

There's series skipped you need to do the following before 8+ 11:
4+7=32
5+8=45
6+9=60
7+10=77
Then finally:
8+11=96

I'm wondering what learning aptitude this was originally designed to gauge

I'm not saying this is an effective measure of it but critical thinking and problem solving skills would be the answer.

Why nikkas inserting equations that arent there

It's a trick question with multiple answers.

 

[Reflected]

That is actually easy, pretty creative though. lol

edit: Oh lord, just take the number that comes after the second number on the number scale and multiply it by the first number.

1+4=5

5 comes after 4 on a number scale so multiply that number by 1.

3+6=21

7 comes after 6 on the number scale so multiple that number by 3.

5 comes after 4 on a number scale so multiply that number by 1.

3+6=21

7 comes after 6 on the number scale so multiple that number by 3.

You can also multiply the two numbers and then add the first number:
1 * 4 + 1 = 5
2 * 5 + 2 = 12
3 * 6 + 3 = 21
8 * 11 + 8 = 96

 

[yyy]

There are multiple potential patterns. Regardless, I will stick with real math 8 + 11 = 19. The middle 2 calculations are impossible.

 

[BasketCase]

Another way to think about it is this:

1 + 4 = 5 //correct
2 + 5 = 12 //incorrect
3 + 6 = 21 //incorrect
8 + 11 = 19 //correct

8 + 11 is always 19 regardless of the other equations.

 

[UpAndComing]

To me it's 96

1 + 4= 5

2 + 5=12 (+7)

3 + 6=21 (+9)

4 + 7 = 32 (+11)

5 + 8 = 45 (+13)

6 + 9 = 60 (+15)

7 + 10 = 77 (+17)

8 + 11 = 96 (+19)


Progressively the as you go down the column you add +2

 

[YvrzTrvly]

This is not math. Gay but 96

 

[Kaypain]

The sum of the first problem is added to the second problem. The sum of the second problem is added to the third problem. The sum of the third problem is added to the fourth problem.

The answer is 40.

maybe... but


you're skipping numbers 4-7 in column A

because you can use an equation
