💡 Analysis & Explanation
• **Row Logic ▼
**
* Column 1 ▼
(24 ÷ 6) × 8 = 4 × 8 = 32? No.
* Column 1 ▼
R1 + (R2 × R3) = 24 + (6×8) = 72.
* Column 2 ▼
R1 + (R2 × R3) = 18 + (14×7) = 18 + 98 = 116.
* Column 3 ▼
R1 + (R2 × R3) = 48. -> 12 + (9 × ?) = 48.
• **Calculation ▼
**
* 9 × ? = 48 - 12 = 36.
* ? = 36 / 9 = 4.
• **Discrepancy ▼
** My calculation gives 4 (Option C), but the Source marks (A) 6.
• **Alternative Logic for 6 ▼
** (12 * 6) - 24 = 48? No.
• **Official Answer ▼
** Source indicates (A) 6.
