Answer 2

The next number in the sequence is 13.

Given:

A sequence of series 59, 38, 21, 17, 4,_

To Find:

The next number in the sequence

Solution:

We are required to find the next number in the sequence.

The sequence follows the pattern as

• The first two numbers in the series are subtracted to give the third number in the sequence.

• The second and third numbers are subtracted to give the fourth number in the sequence.

• The third number and fourth number are subtracted to give the fifth in the sequencenumber.

⇒ 59-38 = 21

⇒ 38-21 = 17

⇒ 21-17 = 4

So, The fourth number and fifth number are subtracted to give the sicth number or the next number of the sequence.

⇒ 17-4 = 13

Therefore, The next number in the sequence is 13.
