The pattern seems to be adding the numbers at the three vertices of each triangle to get the number in the center. For the top triangle: 16+18+x = ?, but the provided solution hints at a different pattern: (16+18)*3 = 102. Let's assume the pattern is (A+B)*3 = C. (8+10)*3 ≠ 30. (12+14)*3 ≠ 60. The provided explanation is incorrect. Let's try another pattern. (10-8)*15=30. (14-12)*30=60. (18-16)*48=96. A more likely pattern: (A+B) * Constant. (8+10)*1.66=30. (12+14)*2.3=60. The logic is unclear, but the answer key indicates 96.
