The next number is 65, and the number after that would be 86
65 is the next number
nothing
65
65
the next number to the sequence 2 5 11 20 32 47 is 65 the difference between 2 and 5 is 3, diff. of 5 and 11 is 6, 11 and 20, 9, 20 and 32, 12, 32 and 47, 15... the difference between each number increases by 3. that is with the initial difference of 2 and 5 is 3, get the difference of 2 and 5, 3 and add 3, which will make it six, add it to 5 then you'll get 11. repeat the process then viola.
32 The rule is to add 3n, where n is the number of the number in the series. (add 3, 6, 9, 12).
65. 2+1*3=5 5+2*3=11 11+3*3=20 20+4*3=32 32+5*3=47 47+6*3=65
65 (each jump is 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, etc)
There is a "Fibonacci" like series is that each digit is the sum of the preceding two numbers: 4 + 8 = 12 8 + 12 = 20 So the series continues: 12 + 20 = 32 20 + 32 = 52 32 + 52 = 84 52 + 84 = 136 and so on. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- What number do you want to be next? Give me a number and I'll give you a polynomial so that putting in 1, 2, 3, 4 gives the values 4, 8, 12, 20 and putting in 5 gives the number you want.
The next number in this sequence is 65. according to your numbers ( 2 5 11 20 32 47 ) you add 3 to get 5 from 2. then you add 6 to 5 in order to get 11. then you'll add 9, 12, 15 ( then add 18 to 47 and get 65 ) etc. Each time you add you must increase the added by 3. BTW i really enjoyed your question. Hope this helps. :)
The next number is 2.
