Directions (Q. 9-13) : In every questions two rows are given and to find out the resultant of a particular row you need to follow the following rules :
Step 1: If an odd number is followed by an even number then the resultant comes by multiplying the numbers.
Step 2: If an even number is followed by an odd (non prime) number then the resultant will be the subtraction of the odd number form the even number.
Step 3: If an even is followed by prime number (except 2) then the resultant will be the addition of both the numbers.
Step 4: If an odd number is followed by a perfect cube then the resultant will be the subtraction of the cube root of that number from the odd number.
Step 5: If odd number is followed by another odd number the resultant will be the addition of both the numbers.

- Resultant of second number = 38 – 12 = 26
- R2 = 16 7 M = 26
- = (16 + 7) M = 26 (Rule – 3)
- = 23 M = 26
- Here the value of M should be 3 (follow rule – 5) and final value = 26 – 23 = 3
