Brain Teaser: Solution

The solution to this math puzzle is as follows:

Given

2 + 7 = 27

4 + 4 = 24

5 + 9 = 42

6 + 0 = ??

Now,

The pattern that can be spotted here is that:

2 + 7 = 9 and 9 * 3 = 27

Applying the same logic to the remaining portions, we get

4 + 4 = 8 and 8 * 3 = 24

5 + 9 = 14 and 14 * 3 = 42

Now,

6 + 0 = 6 and 6 * 3 = 18

So the missing value is 18.
