Can you solve this peculiar sum?

Can you solve this peculiar sum?

Yes!
52 or 67357784457877 haven’t made my mind up.
96
69,420
I have to be honest though, I used a calculator
96.
The formula is the first number times the second number plus the first number to get the total.
8*11 + 8 = 96
40

I would go with 40

R: Response
Rn = R{n-1} + (bn + an)
Rn = (an * bn) + an
Rn = an * bn + an
R₈ = a₈ * b₈ + a₈
R₈ = (8) (11) + (8)
R₈ = 96
96 = 8*11+8
last time I checked 8 + 11 was 19 I guess that hasn't changed.
I get 96
The problem is that 2 + 5 =7 and 3 + 6 =9 🤣
96!
40 would be the not-genius answer, as I'm in that camp 🥹
I‘m not a genious. It‘s 40 for me.

Pattern seems to be adding the previous sum from the line above. So 40. The notation is dumb.

Nope. 🙄 Because inaccurate math “puzzles” like this create issues when applying math and logic correctly.
8 + 11 =19 is the correct answer.
2 + 5 =7
3 + 6 =9
FYI: I like this account. This isn’t an attack against you. 🤗

It is 96

Multiplying the second number by which line number it is each time
Sorry, accidentally copied into a different comment.
#nostrproblems 😂 :
1 + 4(1) =5
2 + 5(2) =12
3 + 6(3) =21
8 + 11(4) =52
1 + 4(1) =5
2 + 5(2) =12
3 + 6(3) =21
8 + 11(4) =52

Whoops sorry meant 96
