Given ANY number, it is easy to find a polynomial of order 4 that will generate the above four numbers and the selected fifth.
The simplest polynomial or order 3 that will generate the above numbers is
Un = (-53n3 + 399n2 - 880n + 552)/6 for n = 1, 2, 3, ... and accordingly, the next number is -83.
The next number in the pattern is 324. Each number in the pattern is obtained by multiplying the previous number by 3.
The pattern alternates between two sequences: one decreasing by 1 (18, 13) and the other decreasing by 2 (4, 6). Following this pattern, the next number after 6 should be 3 (6 - 3), and the next number after 13 should be 12 (13 - 1). Thus, the next two numbers in the sequence are 12 and 3.
The next is 3.
It is 43 because 31+12 = 43
It is 15 followed by 6 then 18
The next number in the pattern is 324. Each number in the pattern is obtained by multiplying the previous number by 3.
12
3
The next number could be 25. +3, +6, +9, +12 etc.
The pattern alternates between two sequences: one decreasing by 1 (18, 13) and the other decreasing by 2 (4, 6). Following this pattern, the next number after 6 should be 3 (6 - 3), and the next number after 13 should be 12 (13 - 1). Thus, the next two numbers in the sequence are 12 and 3.
5 8 7 10 9 12 11 14 The pattern is +3, -1, +3, -1, +3, -1, +3
To find the next number in the pattern 3, 12, 48, 192, we can observe that each number is multiplied by 4 to get the next number. 3 x 4 = 12 12 x 4 = 48 48 x 4 = 192 Therefore, to find the next number, we multiply 192 by 4: 192 x 4 = 768 So, the next number in the pattern is 768.
What would be the next number in this series 15 12 13 10 11 8?
The next is 3.
The pattern seems to be +1 +3 +1 +3 (3+1 = 4, 4+3 = 7, 7+1 = 8, etc...) So next in the sequence would be 12.
The pattern is +2 /2 +3 /3 +4 /4, and the next term would be +5, or 8.
The sequence reflects a pattern of multiplying by 3, then adding 3, to each successive value. The next value would be 144. Explanation: 4x3=12, 12+3=15, 15x3=45, 45+3=48, 48x3=144
