What is a number in a sequence?
There are infinitely many possible number sequences, and infinitely many numbers which can appear in those sequences. Any and every number can appear in a number sequence.
What are the Different kinds of sequence and its meaning?
The are very many different kinds. Amongst them are:arithmetic sequence: there is a constant [additive] difference between successive terms.geometric sequence: there is a constant [multiplicative] ratio between successive terms.recursive sequence: given two or more "seeds", each term is generated by an expression relating previous terms with the current term.random sequence: where it is no possible to predict the next number even with full information about all the previous terms.spliced sequences: where two or more sequences (as defined above) are merged together.
What is the next number in the series below 3 16 6 12 12 8?
You could consult the Online Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences, but it does not have this sequence. http://www.research.att.com/~njas/sequences/ Note: the mathematical term "series" refers to a sum. The series is 3 + 16 + 6 +... In mathematics, a list of numbers like that is referred to as a "sequence." Also, while your question does not explicity state this, the meaning of your sentence should be "what is the next most likely number..." as many different sequences start out with the same terms. Try checking 1,2,3, at the OEIS, and you'll see a large number of possibilities for the 4th term. However, to address your particular sequence, here's a technique that is sometimes used: Consider the following two sequences: 1,2,3,4,5,6,7... 5,10,15,20,25,... Now consider the sequence 1,5,2,10,3,15,4,20,... If you work your sequence backwards, you'll see that this technique will lead to a possible answer.
What is the next number in the following sequence- 72 576 4608?
36864 as they are all multiples of 8
What are a sequence of seven such numbers?
A sequence of seven numbers is a set of numbers arranged in a specific order. Each number in the sequence is called a term. For example, a sequence of seven numbers could be {1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13}, where each term differs by a constant value of 2. Sequences can follow different patterns, such as arithmetic sequences where each term is found by adding a constant value to the previous term, or geometric sequences where each term is found by multiplying the previous term by a constant value.
