Find the common theme with all these numbers. ( Except for the fact that all of them are wrong )

242 + 32 = 450
252 + 567 = 1575
507 + 147 = 1200
1805 + 20 = 2205
570312 + 19208 = 798848

Not quite all

You are almost there, but you haven't explained why the plus and equals signs are there or why the answer is what it is. Why would 242+32 = 450 and not 512 or some other answer? It would still read 2+2=2. (Yes, there is a reason.)
