The top number is multiplied by the bottom left. Subtract the bottom right number from the result. wave

4.
Code:
  2      4       X
7 4 4  6 9 5   3 8 6


7+4 - 2*4 - 1 = 11 - 8 - 1 = 2
6+9 - 2*5 -1 = 15 - 10 -1 = 4

so, 3+8 - 2*6 -1 = 11 - 12 - 1 = -2

3.
Code:
3 8 4 2   7 6 8 4   5 2 1 7
   9         9         9
   6         5         4
   6         9         8
   3         8         1
5 6 3 9   1 9 7 9   4 3 8 1

The vertical numbers are the sum of the top and bottom
numbers of the "I" to it's right (wraps around).

Bob...you're on the right track...but making it too complex; look for a simple solution based on position think

Sometimes lost is where you need to be. Just because you don't know your direction doesn't mean you don't have one.

5.
Code:
3 8 2 4 | 1 1 6 | 1 7
4 9 6 8 | 1314  | 1 8
7 5 1 9 | 1210  | 1 3

In col 1, the sum of the first two digits followed by the sum of the last two digits is the number in col 2.
In col 2, the first digit followed by the sum of the remaining digits is the number in col 3. smile

4.
Code:
  2      4       X
7 4 4  6 9 5   3 8 6


7 * 4 = 24 + 4

6 * 9 = 45 + 9

so, 3 * 8 = 16 + 8

x = 1
