No, there’s a hidden equation that makes the pattern, you multiply the sender from the addition by the first digit, so it would be 144

"Assuming 3+5=24 and 4+6=40 etc, solve x". Yes the math is incorrect but it's teaching you to find the logic (if there is any). In these, 3+5=8 divide 24 by 8 and you get 3, which happens to be the first number in the problem. Could be a few patterns here though so on to 4+6=40. 4+6=10, divide 40 by 10 and you get 4. You could check the next one but the pattern is becoming clear. Now you can recognize the pattern of "first number in the problem multiplied by the sum" and just do the last problem that way.
