Question

find the missing term.
5,8,13,22,37,?

Answer 1

Answer:

The next number in the series is 39.

LOGIC 1 : ( 'n'th term * 2 ) - n = (n + 1)th term

Therefore

3 * 2 - 1 = 5

5 * 2 - 2 = 8

8 * 2 - 3 = 13

13 * 2 - 4 = 22

22 * 2 - 5 = 39

39 * 2 - 6 = 72

Answer 2

Answer:

The next term will be 60.

Step-by-step explanation:

The logic is (n+1)th term - nth term = n² - n + 3

∴ 8 - 3 = 3 and 1² - 1 + 3 = 3 are equal

Similarly, 13 - 8 = 5 and 2² - 2 + 3 = 5 are equal

Hence, 5² - 5 + 3 = 23 and hence 37 + 23 = 60 is our answer.
