This is the sequence of triangular numbers. You draw one dot. Then you draw two dots in the line below - one to the left and one to the right of the first dot. You now have a triangle, of three dots. Then you draw three dots in the next line and you get a triangle with 6 dots. Next, four more dots in the next line giving a triangle with 10 dots. The name is easy to understand if you can visualise or even actually draw these dots. It is difficult to demonstrate through an ordinary word processing package.

What is the missing number 10 15 28?

To find the missing number in the sequence 10, 15, 28, we can look for a pattern in the differences between the numbers. The difference between 10 and 15 is 5, and the difference between 15 and 28 is 13. If we assume a pattern in the differences, the missing number could be 21, which fits as the average of 15 and 28. Thus, the sequence could be 10, 15, 21, 28.

What is the next number in the sequence 5 15 12 24 21 21 18?

To find the next number in the sequence 5, 15, 12, 24, 21, 21, 18, we can analyze the pattern. The differences between the numbers are: 10, -3, 12, -3, 0, -3. Following this pattern, the next difference would likely be 12, resulting in a next number of 18 + 12 = 30. Thus, the next number in the sequence is 30.
