​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

What is the next number in the series 6, 12, 30, and 56?

The answer is 132 which is obtained by using prime number series where each prime number is multipled with its consecutive number.

2 * 3 = 6

3 * 4 = 12

5 * 6 = 30

7 * 8 = 56

11 * 12 = 132

Another method to calculate the answer is to add the prime number to its square.

2^2 + 2 = 6

3^2 + 3 = 12

5^2 + 5 = 30

7^2 + 7 = 56

11^2 + 11 = 132
