What’s involved in this mathematical puzzle?
To test your brainpower, we’re going to present you with three grids containing four small squares. Each square contains a number that follows a precise mathematical logic.
In the third grid, a number is missing, and it’s up to you to find it. To succeed in this mathematical puzzle, you need to use the contents of the other grids and understand their logic.
However, you’ll need to be quick, as there’s a time limit. You only have 35 seconds to find the right answer. Above all, stay focused and give it your best shot – you can do it.
Why try to solve a mathematical puzzle?

Now it’s time to see the results!
The correct answer was 50!
Congratulations to all those who managed to solve the riddle in the allotted time. For those who couldn’t find the right answer, don’t worry, we’ll help you.
By adding up the squares of the numbers in each grid, we get 14 for the first grid (1²+2²+3²), 29 for the second grid (2²+3²+4²), and 50 for the third grid (3²+4²+5²). The final result of the addition is 50.
