59. You are adding prime numbers to the previous term:

1+2(1st prime #) = 3

3+3(2nd prime #) = 6

6+5(3rd prime #) = 11

etc...

What number comes next in this sequence 1 3 6 11 18 29?

42 is the next number in this sequence. This number sequence is adding the next prime number to the last number. So 1 + 2 = 3. Then 3 + 3 = 6, 6 + 5 = 11, 11 + 7 = 18, 18 + 11 = 29. The next prime number after 11 is 13, so 29 + 13 = 42. The next numbers would be 59 (42+17), 78 (59+19), and 101 (78+23)


What number comes next after 1 4 5 7 9 11?

I'm fairly sure you meant the "4" to be a "3" in this sequence. There is no "next number" in the sequence given, since there is no rule that encompasses the entire sequence. And to be fair, in number sequences, any number can still logically be "next". If it's not the number that you expect, it is still a number sequence. It is just not a predicable one.
