Don't know which puzzle you're answering, Mark, but this one is unanswered .............and its not 10. Smile

It had me stumped too so I cheated and looked at the answer.Wink

If you want a start, look at the relationship between the first numbers and those inside the bracket. However, that's a bit of a red herring. The key to ? is the (number) and the one that follows.

The first step is not arithmetical, the second step is!

I get 1726 as well. i think you'd have to be a maths wizard to get that answer without a clue.

Wow, I really went back and forth on this one, but thankfully the clues (and others giving the correct answer) got me there in the end!
