There are infinitely many sequences that start with those 6 values.
However, if you look at the differences between each term and the next you will find:
768 - 21 = 747 + 38 = 785
785 - 24 = 761 + 41 = 802
802 - 27 = 775
So it looks like a sequence of alternately subtracting and adding something, the value of which increases by 3 each time: -21, +38, -24, +41, -27, ...
Alternatively it can be seen as two sequences interlaced, one term from each in sequence:
768, 785, 802, ... where each term is 17 more than the last: U{n} = 751 + 17n for n = 1, 2, 3, ...
747, 761, 775, ... where each term is 14 more than the last: U{n} = 733 + 14n for n = 1, 2, 3, ...
Combining the two gives:
U{n} = 751 + 17(n+1)/2 for n = odd (1, 3, 5, ...)
U{n} = 733 + 7n for n = even (2, 4, 6, ...)

According to Wittgenstein's Finite Rule Paradox every finite sequence of numbers can be a described in infinitely many ways and so can be continued any of these ways - some simple, some complicated but all equally valid.
The simplest polynomial solution is:
Un = (-127*n5 + 2215*n4 - 14500*n3 + 43940*n2 - 60238*n + 51750)/30, for n = 1, 2, 3, ...
The next term is 91. The sequence differences are: 875 - 874 = 1 = 13 874 - 866 = 8 = 23 866 - 839 = 27 = 33 839 - 775 = 64 = 43 775 - 650 = 125 = 53 650 - 434 = 216 = 63 The next difference is 73 (= 343) which is subtracted from 434 to get the next term: 434 - 343 = 91 The sequence is defined as: U1 = 875 Un+1 = Un - n3 for n > 1
40% of $775.00 = 40% * 775 = 0.4 * 775 = $310.00
775-150 = 625 So 150 + 625 = 775.
The factors of 775 are 1, 5, 25, 31, 155, and 775. The prime factors of 775 are 5 x 5 x 31.
