In each given circle, the middle number equals

(A - B) * (C / D)

where

all four outer numbers A B C D are from 1 to 9 inclusive, and A and B are adjacent.

The last circle fits this pattern if

the right number is 9 and the bottom number is 1.

    $\begingroup$ Why not 1 and 1? Wouldn't this also work? $\endgroup$
