Answer 1

Answer:

We have to add one one no.

Step-by-step explanation:

5+1=6

6+2=8

8+3=11

11+4=15

15+5=20

20+6=26

26 is the answer

Answer 2

Given:

5, 6, 8, 11, 15, 20, ?

To Find:

The next number in the sequence.

Solution:

In this sequence, we have 5 as the initial number.

The next number, 6 is the sum of 5 and 1

Similarly, 8 is the sum of 6 and 2.

               11 is the sum of 8 and 3

                15 is the sum of 11 and 4

                20 is the sum of 15 and 5

So, in this way the next digit will be the sum of 20 and 6

⇒ 20 + 6 = 26

Hence, the next number in the sequence will be 26. (Option D)
