Going strictly by the numbers in the table I’ll stick with 18.

In fact, 9 = 90 is an assumption as well because we are expected to assume there is a 10 above the 9 in the sequence.

Exactly. The clue is the very first line. That tells you to use "logic" to compute the answer.

I also approached this as did Reggie, but when the implication was that it was incorrect, I went back and looked at the numbers as if there were no others.

So, assuming this: the progression from 6 to 3 is that 3 is half of 6. Following this then 3.5 is half of 7. So, if the numbers are multiplied, 3 times 3.5 is 10.5.

Hey, when you're told your wrong you have to keep trying...what can I say?
