Not everyone is agreed on this but Peano's axioms, which are the basis for the axiomatic structure of numbers defines 0 as a natural number and then all other natural numbers in terms of successors.

  • 0 is not a successor of any natural number.
  • 1 is the successor of 0 is 1 = S(0)
  • 2 = S(S(0))
  • 3 = S(S(S(0))) and so on.
Accordingly, the first natural number is 0.

What is the next number in the sequence 7 6 4 6 2 6 1 6?

1 is a possibility because: I believe that this sequence has two parts. It is an alternating sequence. It has a repeated pattern of 6s as the second number and 4th and 6th and 8th etc. The first number and third and fith, etc. goes down by a number which goes down each time. So it is: 7-3 6+/- 0 4-2 6+/- 0 2-1 6+/- 0 1-0 6+/- 0 1-1 6+/- 0 0 (etc.) But simply the answer could be many things but 1 is the answer I found first.
