The solution
The missing number you needed to find is 45.
To find this answer, you had to add the numbers in the second row with the first digit of the top row to get the number in the right-hand box. The result is :
In the first row, add the number 8 as follows:
12 + 8 = 20
20 + 8 = 28
In the second line, we add 12, the first digit of the first row:
18 + 12 = 30
30 + 12 = 42
And in the last line, you have :
27 + 18 = 45
45 + 18 = 63
