Answer: 27 & 99.

Explanation:

The connection between the numbers needs to figured out to find the value of the missing numbers.

Since there are 2 missing numbers we can infer that the numbers in the 2nd and 3rd column are the result of the number in the first column.


The number in the 2nd column is the reverse of the double of the number in the 1st column & the number in the 3rd column is the result that you get when you add the double of the number in the 1st column and reverse of that double.

So to show this let’s look at the numbers in the 1st row.

The number in the 1st column => 12
Double of 12 => 24
Reverse of 24 => 42 = Number in the 2nd column.

Lets add the double and it’s reverse.

24 + 42 = 66 = The number in the 3rd column.

Applying the same logic we can prove that all the results are based on this logioc.

So to find the missing numbers;

The number in the 1st column => 36
Double of 36 => 72
Reverse of 72 => 27 = Number in the 2nd column.

Lets add the double and it’s reverse.

27 + 72 = 99 = The number in the 3rd column.

Hence the answers are: 27 & 99.
