Final Answer:
The robot reaches the exit by following the path where each multiplication is correct. Starting from the top, the correct path is:
4 × 4 = 16 → 9 × 8 = 72 → 12 × 11 = 132 → 5 × 5 = 25 → 7 × 7 = 49 → 8 × 11 = 88 → 8 × 4 = 32 (exit).
But wait—the maze shows numbers *inside* the circles (the products), and the arrows connect them. To find the correct path, we must check which adjacent circles have matching products for their given expressions.
Let’s verify step by step using the visible expressions and their correct products:
- Top start:
4 × 4 = 16 → only circle with 16 is connected to it.
- From 16, options: 9 × 8 = 72, or 12 × 7 = 84? The circle labeled
72 is there → 9 × 8 = 72
✔
- From 72, next: 12 × 11 = 132 → circle with
132 exists
✔
- From 132, options: 5 × 5 = 25, or 9 × 4 = 36? Circle with
25 is present → 5 × 5 = 25
✔
- From 25, next: 7 × 7 = 49 → circle labeled
49 is there
✔
- From 49, next: 8 × 11 = 88 → circle labeled
88 ✔
- From 88, next: 8 × 4 = 32 → circle labeled
32 is the exit
✔
All match. So the correct path ends at
32.
However, the question likely asks: *Which number is at the exit?* Or *What is the final product on the correct path?*
Looking at the maze layout, the bottom-right circle (exit) is labeled
32, and it corresponds to
8 × 4.
Final Answer:
32
