The following image contains a mathematical equation and you have to discover the answer by identifying which number is missing to fill in the figure. Don't forget to pay attention to the number of numbers and the order in which the mathematical operations must be calculated. Without further ado, it's time for you to solve the challenge!

Mathematical puzzle.

And there? Did you manage to find the missing number? Let's start the explanation of the calculation and, if you haven't found the answer yet, you can try again following the step by step. It is important to highlight that to solve this equation it is essential to follow the order in which the operations must be performed.

challenge answer

Initially, you must use the hour hands to understand the result, which was 21. Note that the hour hands on the watch indicate 9 o'clock + 9 o'clock + 3 o'clock. So we have 9 + 9 + 3 = 21.

In the part of the calculators, you just add the total number of digits that appear in each one of them to understand why the result was 30. As you can see, on every calculator the number 1234 appears, so 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 = 10 and 10 three times equals 30. In the case of light bulbs, each one corresponds to the number 5, so the result was 15.

Finally, let's go to the complete equation to find the missing number in the picture. The calculator adds the number 9, the clock indicates the number 9, and there are four lines in the light bulbs in the final calculation. So we have 9 + 9 x 3(43) = 9 + 9 x 3(12) = 9 + 9 x 36 is the total. Thus, the result of the first multiplication is 9 + 324 and the final result is 333.
