Answer:

98

2+3=2*[3+(2-1)]=8

3+7=3*[7+(3-1)]=27

4+5=4*[5+(4-1)]=32

5+8=5*[8+(5-1)]=60

6+7=6*[7+(6-1)]=72

therefore

7+8=7*[8+(7-1)]=98

x+y=x[y+(x-1)]=x^2+xy-x

Answer:

2*3 + 3* 7 = 27

4*3 + 5* 4 = 32

....

7*6 + 8*7 = 98

or it could be :

2+3-1 = 5 -1 = 4 *2 = 8

3+7-1 = 10-1 = 9 *3 = 27

4+5-1 = 9-1 = 8 * 4 = 32

5+8-1 = 13-1 = 12 * 5 = 60

6+7-1 = 13-1 = 12 *6 = 72

7+8-1 = 15-1 = 14*7 = 98
