The next number is the sequence is 10.
To find the second number, 1 was subtracted from the first number
To find the third number, 2 was subtracted from the second number
To find the fourth number, 3 was subtracted from the third number
Therefore to find the fifth number, 4 must be subtracted from the fourth number.
14 - 4 = 10

The next number in the sequence is 27.
Think it's 30...then 20

The given sequence appears to have a common difference of 3. Thus, the next term in the sequence would be 17.
24
17?
The next number in the sequence is 27.
Think it's 30...then 20
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.
