The pattern is /4*6/5*7/6 so next is *8, or 56.
More clearly:
20 (divided by 4) = 5
5 (times 6) = 30
30 (divided by 5) = 6
6 (times 7) = 42
42 (divided by 6) = 7
Every other number they switch from multiplication to division or vice versa, and the number being multiplied or divided goes up by one, so the odd numbers in the group (the first, third, and fifth numbers ie 20, 30, and 42) are divided by 4, 5, 6, 7, etc. to get the next even numbers. The even numbers in the group (5, 6, and then 7) are multiplied by 6, 7, and then 8.
The number which best completes the sequence below is 20 5 30 6 42 7
10
92 - 18 = 72 72 - 16 = 56 56 - 14 = 42 42 - 12 = 30 30 - 10 = 20 20 is the next number in the sequence.
56 (just the next number, not the number that completes the sequence)
10 The sequence is given by xn = 60/n
The number which best completes the sequence below is 20 5 30 6 42 7
next in the sequence: 10,20,30,20
10
The next number in the sequence will be 56.
10 is one possibility.
