Question

23,40,64,96,137,? Find out the next number

Answer 1

Difference of 23 and 40 = 40-23 = 17

Difference of 40 and 64 = 64-40 = 24

Difference of 64 and 96 = 96-64 = 32

Difference of 96 and 137 = 137-96 = 41

Now the numbers we got is 17,24,32,41

Look at the difference of these numbers : 24-17 = 7,32-24 = 8,41-32 = 9

These numbers are increasing so the next number is 10

Now add 41 to 10 so we get 51

Therefore the next number is 137+51 = 188.
