To determine the next number in the sequence 1, 5, 10, 14, 28, we need to identify the pattern or rule governing the sequence. By examining the differences between consecutive numbers, we can see that the pattern involves adding consecutive prime numbers: 4 (2+2), 5 (3+2), 7 (5+2), 11 (7+4). Therefore, the next number in the sequence would be 28 + 11 = 39.
20 + 3 = 23 23 + 5 = 28 28 / 2 = 14 14 + 3 = 17 17 + 5 = 22 22 / 2 = 11 11 + 3 = 14 14 + 5 = 19 19 / 2 = 9.5

The next perfect number after 11 is 28.
The series is a sequence of three numbers, the second number is 3 greater than the first, and the third number is 5 greater than the second. (or 8 greater than the first) 20 + 3 = 23 : 23 + 5 = 28 14 + 3 = 17 : 17 + 5 = 22 11 + 3 = 14........is therefore the next number in the sequence.
Probable answer is 11 as shown below:1 + 5 = 65 + 6 = 116 + 11 = 1711 + 17 = 28
38 - 17 = 21 / 2 = 10.5 so the number in the middle is 17 + 11 = 28
17 + 11 = 28
