The solution
To solve today's puzzle, you have to disregard all math rules to get behind the arithmetic logic.
In fact, the solution is very simple: You get to the result after the equal sign by
multiplying, adding and subtracting
the preceding digits
.
Then they put together the three numbers obtained to the end result to the right of the equal sign:
6x3 = 18 (1st digit)
6 + 3 = 9 (2nd digit)
6-3 = 3 (3rd digit)
Put together, the result of the first equation is then 1893.

It is the same with the second equation:
9x5 = 45 (1st digit)
9 + 5 = 14 (2nd digit)
9-5 = 4 (3rd digit)
Putting all three individual results together gives the result of the second equation: 45144.
