Answer:

From the image below  we see that  

5  matchsticks are required to make  

2  and   6   matchsticks are needed to make  6

So if the number of 2s is taken as '

a

' and the number of sixes is taken as '

b

the number of matchsticks needed to make the 2s  =

5  x a = 5a

The number of matchsticks needed to make the 6s  = 6x b = 6b

Total number of matchsticks  = 5a+6b

In the number  

262226

, there are  four times  number 2 and two times number 6

Hence,  

a  = 4 and b = 2

Therefore, the total number of matchsticks required  

=  5a+6b=5×4+6×2 = 20+12=32

so the naswer is 32 hope it helps
