Answer = 4.
Explanation:
The relation between the numbers are as follows;
C3 – C2/C1 = C4
So let\’s test this logic in row 1;
4 / 2 = 2 :: 5 – 2 = 3;
Similarly we can check if this holds true for other rows;
9 / 3 = 3 :: 9 – 3 = 6;
12 / 4 = 3 :: 8 – 3 = 5;
10 / 5 = 2 :: 8 – 2 = 6
Therefore we can find the missing number as;
18 / 6 = 3 :: 7 – 3 = 4.
Answer = 4
