Here is the logic used:

Logic: Middle number = Sum of the products of opposite numbers

Picture 1:

qImage67f626786fc64491b8a17c72 Task Id 1245 Daman (2)

→ 22 = (5 x 2) + (3 x 4)

→ 22 = 10 + 12.

Picture 2:

→ 49 = (3 x 8) + (5 x 5)

→ 49 = 24 + 25.

Similarly,

Figure 3 :

Thus, the middle number is "73".

Therefore, the correct answer is "Option 2" .
