The sequence is formed by subtracting 89 at the first step and then reducing this figure by 9 at each successive step. 298 - 89 = 209 209 - 80 = 129 129 - 71 = 58 58 - 62 = -4 -4 - 53 = -57........this is the next number in the series.
-57 298 - 89 = 209 209 - 80 = 129 129 - 71 = 58 58 - 62 = -4 -4 - 53 = -57 notice every number is subtracted by 9 less than the previous number's subtrator
-57The first two numbers in the series has a difference of 89. The next two numbers (209, 129) has a difference of 80. The next two (129,58) has a difference of 71. As you can see the differences change by 9, so the next two numbers in the series (58, -4) has a difference of 62. Following this pattern, the next two numbers in the series will have a difference of 53. So the next number in this series will be (-4-53 = -57).
-57. You are taking away 9 less each time.
At each step the number being subtracted is reduced by 9 298 - 89 = 209 209 - 80 = 129 129 - 71 = 58 58 - 62 = -4 -4 - 53 = -57..........which is the next number.
The difference between one number and the next in the sequence is decreasing by 9 each time. Therefore, the difference between -4 and the next number will be equal to 62 - 9 = 53. The next number is therefore equal to -4 - 53 = -57.
298 less 209 is 89 209 less 129 is 80 129 less 58 is 71 58 less -4 is 62 The result of each subsequent equation is 9 less than the previous one (89, 80, 71...). The next result is going to be 62-9=53. The first number in each equation above is the same as the second number in the previous equation: 298 less 209 is 89 209 less 129 is 80So, the next equation will be: -4 less X is 53 Therefore, X is the next number in the original sequence, which resolves to: -57
