To find the next number in any series, first you have to find out the pattern. It's not hard, really - just go through addition, subtraction, division, and multiplication and see which one fits. Sometimes they switch with every other one, so just be on the look out. It takes practice to get the hang of this.
For 1 1 2 4 5 25, the only thing that makes sense for the first one (1 to 1) is division by one, multiplication by one, or squaring one. Neither of this works for the next one (1 to 2), so move on to the third (2 to 4). The only one that works is squaring two.
Now you have that every other number is squared.
Then look at the pattern you haven't figured out (1 to 2, 4 to 5, 25 to ?). Now it's pretty obvious that the pattern is squaring the number, then adding one, and rotating them from there.
5 was squared to 25, so we have to add one.
Therefore, the next number would be 26.

Whot is the next number in the series 25 24 22 19 15?
25-1=24 24-2=22 22-3=19 19-4=15 15-5=10 The next number in the series is 10.
What is the next number in the series 25 28 24 27 23 26 22?
The pattern appears to be that n1 is defined as 25; n2 = n1 + 3; n3 = n2 - 4 = n1 - 1. If this is the pattern, the next number would be 25. If this is the pattern, the series would repeat endlessly: 25, 28, 24, 27,23, 26, 22, 25, , 28, 24, 27,23, 26, 22, ...
What comes next in the series 1-2-5-10-17?
This series is of the function f(x) = x2+1, starting with x=0.The next number in the series is 26. The number after that is 37.
What number should come next in this series 1 4 9 16?
The series appears to increase as follows: 1 (+3), 4 (+5), 9 (+7), 16,, etc. If so, the next number in the series would be 25 (16 + 9). * * * * * While mathematically equivalent, a simpler description is: 12, 22, 32, 42, 52 ...
What no comes next in series 1 5 25 125?
625 (u times all the numbers by 5) =========================== Another way to look at the series of numbers: 1 = 5^0 5 = 5^1 25 = 5^2 125=5^3 The next number, as the first author points out, should be 5^4 = 625. ==========================
What numbers comes next 49 24 -1?
-26.You are subtracting each number in the series by 25 to find the next number.So 49 - 25 = 2424 - 25 = -1And -1 - 25 = -26The next number would then be -26 - 25 = -51etc...
Which number comes next in this series 8 4 2 1 .5 .25?

What number should come next at the end of the series 1 4 9 16?
This is the series of square numbers, (16= 4*4). The next number is 5*5=25.
What number comes next in the series 1 1 3 2 4 6 5 25?

1-4-9-16-25 what number should come next in the series?
The Pattern is 1^2- 2^2- 3^2- 4^2- 5^2 or 1 - 4 - 9 - 16 - 25 The next number in the series is 6^2 or 36
Whot is the next number in the series 25 24 22 19 15?
25-1=24 24-2=22 22-3=19 19-4=15 15-5=10 The next number in the series is 10.
What is the next number in the series 1 4 9 25 36?
These are squares. 12 = 1 22 = 4 32 = 9 (it is missing 42 = 16) 52 = 25 62 = 36 The next one in the series is probably 72 = 49.
1 4 9 16 25 what is the next number of the series?
The series is the result of squaring whole numbers starting with 1: 1*1=1 2*2=4 3*3=9 4*4=16 5*5=25 Therefore, the next number must be the result of squaring 6 (or 6*6), which is 36.
Which number should come at the end of the series 1 4 9 16?
The next number is 25 but there are the sequence is infinite so there can be no end to the sequence.
What is the next number in the series 25 28 24 27 23 26 22?
The pattern appears to be that n1 is defined as 25; n2 = n1 + 3; n3 = n2 - 4 = n1 - 1. If this is the pattern, the next number would be 25. If this is the pattern, the series would repeat endlessly: 25, 28, 24, 27,23, 26, 22, 25, , 28, 24, 27,23, 26, 22, ...
What is the next number in the series 1-1-3-4-5-9-7-16?
The next number is 9. The sequence is - starting with the 1st digit, you add 2 each time. Starting at the 2nd digit, each number is a square. Therefore the next two numbers would be 9 (7+2) and 25 (5x5)
