3 is the answer
It is 2, assuming the pattern is repeated as given. 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1... If the intended pattern is to continue to subtract 1 from the last number, then the 5479th digit of the pattern will be -5470.
+3, -3, +4, -3, +5, -3, (+6, -3, +7, -3...)
Add 3 each time
2-1 = 1 4-2 = 2 7-4 =3 x-7 = 4 -> x = 11 So: 1, 2, 4, 7, 11, 16, 22 etc.
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.

1, 3, 4, 7, 11, 18, 29, 47
[(-4) + (-3)]*[(-2 - (-1)] = (-4 -3)*(-2 + 1) = -7*-1 = +7[(-4) + (-3)]*[(-2 - (-1)] = (-4 -3)*(-2 + 1) = -7*-1 = +7[(-4) + (-3)]*[(-2 - (-1)] = (-4 -3)*(-2 + 1) = -7*-1 = +7[(-4) + (-3)]*[(-2 - (-1)] = (-4 -3)*(-2 + 1) = -7*-1 = +7
plus 4, minus 3
1 and 3/4 = 7 / 4 = (7 / 4) / (1 / 3) = ((7 / 4) / (1 / 3)) * 1 = ((7 / 4) / (1 / 3)) * (3 / 3) = (3 * (7 / 4)) / 3 * (1 / 3) = (21 / 4) / (3 / 3) = (21 / 4) / 1 = 21 / 4 = 5 and 1/4

2-1 = 1 4-2 = 2 7-4 =3 x-7 = 4 -> x = 11 So: 1, 2, 4, 7, 11, 16, 22 etc.
12 ****************************** 11, 16, 22 are the 3 numbers continuing the pattern.
19 + 3 = 22 to repeat the pattern
