Puzzle A: the answer is 6.
Add the numbers on either side then take the product of the 2 digits of the result.
So:
18 + 5 = 23; 2 * 3 = 6.
24 + 37 = 61; 6 * 1 = 6
8 + 8 = 16; 6 * 1 = 6
10 + 22 = 32; 3 * 2 = 6.

Puzzle B: the answer is 12.
The product of the 2 numbers then the product of the digits of the result.
13 * 2 = 26; 2 * 6 = 12
2 * 31 = 62; 6 * 2 = 12
17 * 2 = 34; 3 * 4 = 12
43 * 1 = 43; 4 * 3 = 12

No

These kinds of puzzles I understand. Once you let us know we can ignore the left column and the right column it became a lot easier.

I remember one time I found a math puzzles app for smartphones. This reminds me of that. Though if I recall it became unbearable because of ads.

I take it my answers are correct then?

Okay a classic.

Construct a 4 x 4 Magic square

If you want a harder challenge try a 5 x 5 and/or a 6 x 6.

There are many solutions. Just try and have fun with it. Don't look up a solved one :)

I can't tell the tone in your posts. But just in case you're not joking... we're looking for consecutive positive integers only from 1 -16 for 4x4, 1-25 for 5x5, and 1-36 for 6x6.
