Direction (11-15): There are two rows given and to find out the resultant of a particular row we need to follow the following steps: –
Step 1: If an even number is followed by an odd number, then the resultant will be the addition of both the numbers.
Step 2: If an odd number is followed by a perfect square, then the resultant will be the difference of that square number and the odd number.
Step 3: If an odd number is followed by another odd number (but not a perfect square) then the resultant will be the addition of both the numbers.
Step 4: If an odd number is followed by an even number (but not a perfect square) then the resultant comes by multiplying the numbers.
Step 5: If an even number is followed by another even number, then the resultant will be the division of first number by the second number.

Q11. Find the sum of two rows.
