I'll be again doing a giveaway of STEM tokens to the lucky random winner with the correct answer. For the last contest, which was Brain Teaser :: Can You Solve this Addition Sum?.

Solution :: Brain Teaser :: Can You Solve this Addition Sum?

Pattern being followed was::

First Two Digits: 5 x 3 = 15
First and Last Digits: 5 x 2 = 10

Now, we add the products: 15 + 10 = 25 and subtract second digit from it so it will 25 – 3 = 22

Finally; combine all the products and difference, therefore we get 151022

Now lets apply the same logic for the last row in Question::

First Two Digits: 7 x 2 = 14
First and Last Digits: 7 x 6 = 42

Now, we add the products: 14 + 42 = 56 and subtract second digit from it so it will 56 – 2 = 54

Finally; combine all the products and difference, therefore we get :: 144254

Finally the answer to the puzzle was:: 144254

We had Four entries and all of them provided the right answer. Hence, I am going to use the random picker too to pick one winner - Hive random comment picker. - And the Winner is :: @sperosamuel15

Congratulations ALL - You all WIN yourself 10 STEM tokens each. You should be having the rewards in your STEM Wallet Soon.
