If 8#2 = 6; 15#3 = 8; 16#8 = 10; then what is the value of 22#2?
Answer
Correct Answer : b ) 13
Explanation :In the given question,
8#2 = 6; 15#3 = 8; 16#8 = 10
We can figure out that '#' means adding the square of the second number to the first number and then dividing by the second number:
8#2 = (8 + 22)/2 = 12/2 = 6
15#3 = (15 + 32)/3 = 24/3 = 8
16#8 = (16 + 82)/8 = 80/8 = 10
Similarly,
22#2 = (22 + 22)/2 = 26/2 = 13
Hence, (b) is the correct answer.
