I did add the first terms digits together then add 4.

1+4=5+4 = 9.
2+6=8+4 = 12.

14 : 9. = (1+4) + 4
26 : 12 = (2+6) + 4

Answer could be 12 also.

9 * 2 = 18 - 4 = 14.
Hence, 26 + 4 = 30/2 = 15
So, 15 is the answer.

294/7=42 it means 7*6 = 42.
So 8 * 7 = 56 and 56 * 8 = 448.

If I calculate,
9*2= 18-4 = 14.

Hence,
15*2= 30-4 = 26.
