ANSWER:
It’s actually quite simple: every number after the equals sign actually represents the results of three sums formed by multiplying, adding, and subtracting the two numbers before the equals sign.
For example, 20+3=602317
20*3 = 60,
20 + 3 = 23,
20-3 = 17
The same principle applies to all the equations after this. So now you know, do you think your friends will be able to get it as quickly as you did?
People Are Having A Really Difficult Time Solving This Math Puzzle. Can You?
Most people get it wrong
At the same time, even the most basic math can be forgotten when you don’t practice. With that in mind, I thought we could leave the regular puzzles aside for a second to try to refresh the basic skills you learned back in school.
For this problem, it’s essential to remember the order of operations while also having a good eye for detail. It’s not an easy task – and according to most sites online, most people get it wrong on their first try.
Can you figure out the solution?
Time to use that head of yours.
Yeah, it’s actually not that simple, but as I said, not even 50% get it right at first.

ANSWER:
Here is the solution
Below we’ll show you the answer.
You are completely correct if… one of your answers was 40!
First problem: 1 + 4 = 5
Second problem: 2 + 5 (adding the previous sum, 5) = 12
Third problem: 3 + 9 (adding the previous sum, 12) = 21
Fourth problem: 8 + 11 (adding the previous sum, 21) = 40
But, what’s the other answer?!
Are you ready?
The 2nd answer is revealed to be… 96!
First problem: 1 x 4 + 1 = 5
Second problem: 2 x 5 + 2 = 12
Third problem: 3 x 6 + 3 = 21
Fourth problem: 8 x 11 + 8 = 96
