The pattern is twice the previous number plus 1 * 2 * (2x2)+1 = 5 * (5x2)+1 = 11 * (11x2)+1 = 23 * (23x2)+1 = 47
They are consecutive prime numbers 2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19 23 29 31 ..... etc
prime numbers
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
2 ,5, 11, 23, 47, 95 ....... Double up each time: 3, 6, 12, 24, 48 ........
The difference doubles each time. 2+3=5.. 5+6=11.. 11+12=23..Therefore the next number in the sequence would be 47, since 23+24 = 47.
The pattern is twice the previous number plus 1 * 2 * (2x2)+1 = 5 * (5x2)+1 = 11 * (11x2)+1 = 23 * (23x2)+1 = 47
The answer is 47 The first term has 3 added to it = 2 + 3 =5 The second term has 6 added to it = 5 + (3 x 2) =5 + 6 = 11 The 3rd term is = 11 + (6 x 2) = 11 + 12= 23 Hence the next one is = 23 + (12 x 2) = 23 + 24 = 47
They are consecutive prime numbers 2 3 5 7 11 13 17 19 23 29 31 ..... etc
It is: 3 6 12 24 48 .... double up each time
prime numbers
If you mean: 2 5 11 23 47 then they are increasing by 3 6 12 24
4840 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 5 * 11 * 11 = 23 * 5 * 112
I believe they are all Prime Numbers
77000 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 5 * 5 * 5 * 7 * 11 = 23 * 53 * 7 * 11
To get from 2 to 5 you are multliplying 2 by 2 and adding 1. The difference is 3. Now, to get from 5 to 11 you do the same thing - multipy 5 by 2 and add 1 to get 11. That's what you do to 23. Multlipy by 2 and add 1 to get 47.
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
