At this point, you should have the answers. Nevertheless, we will reveal them here so that you can check your calculation.
Here is the complete detail of the calculation to arrive at the solution and define the values of X and Y:
- 3+15 = 18 -> 18/2 = 9
- 15+7 = 22 -> 22/2 = 11
- 7+19 = 26 -> 26/2 = 13
- 9+11 = 20 -> 20/2 = 10
- In the same way: 11+13 = 24 -> 24/2 = 12
X is then equal to 12
Now that we know the value of X (12), we can do the math to find the value of Y: 10+12 = 22 -> 22/2 = 11
Y is then equal to 11
