If 84 × 13 = 8 and 37 × 13 = 6 then 56 × 22 = ______
7
9
6
8
Correct answer
7
Why this answer is correct
The logic follows here is:
(Sum of the digits of the first number) - (sum of the digits of the second number) = Third number.
i) 8 + 4 = 12
1 + 3 = 4
12 – 4 = 8
ii) 3 + 7 = 10
1 + 3 = 4
10 – 4 = 6
Similarly,
5 + 6 = 11
2 + 2 = 4
11 – 4 = 7
Hence, the correct answer is "7".
