- A241
- B231
- C233
- D243
Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
Let's test the relationship between numbers in each row:
Row 1: 9
2
+6
2
=81+36=117
Row 2: 12
2
+7
2
=144+49=193
The logic is (First Number)
2
+(Second Number)
2
=Third Number.
Applying this to Row 3:
13
2
+8
2
=169+64=233
Row 1: 9
2
+6
2
=81+36=117
Row 2: 12
2
+7
2
=144+49=193
The logic is (First Number)
2
+(Second Number)
2
=Third Number.
Applying this to Row 3:
13
2
+8
2
=169+64=233
