What's your logic behind this answer?

The logic is, I don't know math so I am relying on patterns. All the numbers show up at least two or more times except for 5 or 7.

every other digit aside from 7 repeats. but the lower a digit is the more likely it is to repeat, seeing as 8 or 9 don't appear at all. so between 5 and 7, 5 is the more likely one.

But the ? literally represents a missing number. It 'is' the missing number.

sum of digits in the first row is 10, sum of digits in second row is 14, sum of digits in third row is 16. you're dividing the difference by 2 each time, so the sum of digits in the fourth row has to be 17, since 2 divided by 2 is 1, so 16+1=17. since we already have 14 in there, the missing number has to be 3.

why don't the columns follow the same logic?

well the ascii for question mark is 63, and strings are read in reverse, so 6?

the columns rows and summation don't provide any particular orientation to make me question which direction the string reads...

hey look there's a 63 right before the ?.

I will wait a couple more hours before I give another tip.

there are 4 4s, but the primes only have one or two iteration. pre-4 primes have 2, post-4 primes have 1...

I cheated and used google. The answer is 2

Nah, Google and AI won't help you.

DAMN TECHNOLOGY! WE BUILT IT TO MATH AND IT HAS MATHED WRONG! I could guess every number, but I'll just go with the three strike policy and take the L.
