Can anyone help me with this.
What is the missing number in this sequence and why? 1,7,11,27,?,107 ------------------ http://www.wheatsheaf.freeserve.co.uk/roastspurs.gif Save Chip - Don't let Sarah win! Official Titterer of the Laughing Hyenas Don't mention the score - I mentioned it once but I think I got away with it! |
the missing number is 51, the sequence is (x2)+5 and (x2)-3 for alternate numbers
thus (1 x 2) + 5 = 7 (7 x 2) - 3 = 11 (11 x 2) + 5 = 27 (27 x 2) - 3 = 51 (51 x 2) + 5 = 107 http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif ------------------ http://website.lineone.net/~swhite10...ile/knight.gif Holy Avenger of the OHF and part time Pinguindiebjäger |

Remember series are deceptive. There can be a huge number of potential answers.
Although this one gives the previous and after number, there still leaves many possibilities.... ------------------ http://www.asnsoup.com/a.jpg |

I was sure I posted the answer yesterday. It must have got lost somewhere. It's to do with the number of syllables in numbers. One - 1 seven - 2 eleven - 3 twenty seven - 4 seventy seven - 5 one hundred and seven - 6 I told her that I thought your answer was far more elegant. No I didn't, I didn't even tell her that it was your answer. I took all of the credit myself. Well, I have to impress her somehow. http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif ------------------ http://www.wheatsheaf.freeserve.co.uk/roastspurs.gif Save Chip - Don't let Sarah win!
