Brain Teaser with Answer
The solution to this math puzzle is as follows:
Given
1+ 1 = 121
2+ 2 = 444
3 + 3 = 969
4+ 4 = ???
Now, if you observe carefully, the pattern followed here is
The number is obtained by the multiplication of the first number by itself; the second number is the sum of the first number and the second number, and the third number is the multiplication of the second number by itself.
Therefore 1 + 1 becomes
1 * 1 = 1
1+ 1 = 2
1 * 1 = 1
The number becomes 121
Similarly,
4+4 becomes
4 * 4 = 16
4 + 4 = 8
4 * 4 = 16
The missing number is 16816.
