Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 3

Understanding

Logic:

Number in 4th row = (Addition of numbers in 1st and 3rd row) + (2 × Number in 2nd row)

As,

5 + 6 + 2 × 9 = 29

3 + 7 + 2 × 4 = 18

Similarly,

1 + ? + 2 × 9 = 22

So, ? = 22 – 19 = 3
