To determine the pattern in this series, we can calculate the difference between each number. The differences are as follows: 13, 374, -40, -15. Looking at these differences, we can see that there is no consistent pattern or arithmetic progression. Therefore, it is difficult to accurately predict the next number in the series based on the given sequence.
