The pattern is: n 1 + n 2 n 3 = n 4 n_1+n_2 - n_3 = n_4 ~~~ ~~ ~~ ~ ~ ~ ; [ n 1 is first number , n 2 is second number ] ;[n_1 \text{is first number} , n_2 \text{ is second number} \ldots]

( 3 + 3 ) 2 = 4 (3 + 3) - 2 = 4

( 3 + 6 ) 5 = 4 (3+6) - 5 = 4

( 1 + 4 ) 3 = 2 (1+4) - 3 = 2

? = 2 ? = \boxed{2}

Add the first two numbers then subtract the third number form the sum obtained to get the final result, i.e.

3 + 3 2 = 6 2 = 4 3+3-2 = 6-2 = 4

3 + 6 5 = 9 5 = 4 3+6 - 5 = 9-5 = 4

1 + 4 3 = 5 3 = 2 1+4-3 =5-3 = \boxed{2}
