Read the following three equations:
5 ~ 4 ~ 3 ~ 9 = 4215
6 ~ 9 ~ 2 ~ 6 = 3816
4 ~ 7 ~ 3 ~ 3 = 1122
Now based on the rule that has been used, solve the following equation:
7 ~ 2 ~ 7 ~ 4 = ____
Select.
A) 3538
B) 2418
C) 2873
D) 3258
E) 4268
2418   The rule that is being followed here is   P ~ Q ~ R ~ S = [first digit of (P * S)] [last digit of (Q * R)] [first digit of (Q * R)] [last digit of (P * S)]   Using the same rule in the incomplete equation,   7 ~ 2 ~ 7 ~ 4 = [first digit of (7 * 4)] [last digit of (2 * 7)] [first digit of (2 * 7)] [last digit of (7 * 4)]   = 2418   Thus 2418 is the missing number.
