This is an interesting one.
Given a special four-digit number, 1978,
we can get the centre two digit (97) by adding
the left-most 2 digits (19) and the right-most 2 digits (78).
Another of this special number is 1538.
Can you get 2 more of this special numbers?
Brain-raking isn't it?
To be frank, it is not that difficult.
Hint: Algebra can solve this maths thinker.

Hi Suresh,
I did not expect such a long list of numbers.
However, I amazed at your answers. Well done! Yes, the answers are definitely correct. And as mentioned I do not think it is difficult.
What I appreciate is the effort in trying. Maths is a wonderful subject for anyone wishing to put in effort.
Cheers!
