Question

Find the next two numbers for the series

95, 93, 89, 83, 75, 65, ___, ____

Answer 1

Answer:

The next two numbers for the series are 53 and 39

Step-by-step explanation:

95 = 95 - 2( 0 )

93 = 95 - 2( 1 )

89 = 93 - 2( 2 )

83 = 89 - 2( 3 )

75 = 83 - 2( 4 )

65 = 75 - 2( 5 )

The series follow the pattern :

       The number = Preceding number - 2n  where n ∈ whole numbers

∴ The next two numbers for the series are 65 - 2( 6 ) = 53 and 53 - 2( 7 ) = 39.
