Here’s another one, and I DO have the answer!

Well after that stupid thing with the eggs (white or not), I do believe that this one is 96 as several other folks have stated.

Formula is a+axb=N: 1+1x4=5; 2+2x5=12; 3+3x6=21; and 8+8x11=96.

Applying a formula vs. what is there visually there might be the answer.

I took the picture for what is shown so I guess we'll have to wait for the answer.

Following the sequence shown
1+4 =5
5 +2+5 =12
12 + 3+6 =21
21+8+11=40
 
The answer is

40 OR 52 OR 96!!!

It's not an equation. There's nothing mathematical about it. It's a riddle that involves numbers, that's all, and it's deliberately ambiguous.

DON’T SHOOT THE MESSENGER!! I didn’t make this up, I just had the devilment and bad taste to share it!! 😈 😂

I haven't seen the video.
The formulae for the three answers are:
A+B+P -> R (40)
A +NxB -> R (52)
A + AxB -> R (96)

where
A = the first term
B = the second term
P= the result of the preceding statement (equation) - ambiguous since the first statement has no precedent (@Pepper :p)
N = the sequential number of the statement (equation)
 
I said in the beginning the answer is either 40 or 96, BUT I do not see where 52 fits!! It is a math problem as shown here:

First line: 1 + 4 = 5

Second line: 2 + 5 = 7.

So now we add the first sum of the previous equation, like so:

5 + 7 = 12

Third line: 3 + 6= 9, so add 9 + 12 = 21.

Solution: 8 + 11 = 19, so add 19 + 21 = 40.



First line: 1 + (4 x 1) = 5

Second line: 2 + (5 x 2) = 12

Third line: 3 + (6 x 3) = 21

Solution: 8 + (11 x 8) = 96

The answer is chocolate. Chocolate is the answer to all of life's problems.

Having said that, note that the first line (1+4=5) is correct, but the second and third line are mathematically incorrect. So the only real answer is 8+11 = 19. It's just arithmetic
