    Saw this as a “thumbnail” screenshot on YouTube. I haven’t watch that video. I think I solved it. It goes like this:

    9 = 72
    8 = 56
    7 = 42
    6 = 30
    ...
    3 = ?

    Have fun!

        LOL Perfect difficulty level. Get all that satisfaction for 10 seconds brainstrain and then move on with your life. The reason I rarely play chess these days

          Yep. I agree. That was fun

          Either Jon and I both got it right or we both got it wrong. LOL

            Indeed! Why do we always have to abuse the poor equality sign in such a bizarre way?

            Why not write: We are looking for an operation f such that f(9) = 72, f(8) = 56, ..."?
