Question

what is the next number in the series 5,23,72​

Answer 1

Answer:

The next number of the series is 147.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided series.

5, 23, 72​, ?

Observe the series.

5×4+3=23

23×3+3=72

Here we can observe that we are multiplying 5 with 4 and adding 3 in the obtained result.

Similarly we are multiplying 23 with 3 and adding 3 in the obtained result.

If we follow the same pattern we can find the next number as shown.

72×2+3=147

Hence, the next number of the series is 147.

Answer 2

The next term is "147".

Step-by-step explanation:

The given series:

5, 23, 72​, ?

To find, the next term(?) = ?

The pattern follow,

$\times 4+ 3,\times 3+ 3,\times 2+ 3.$

23 = 5 × 4 + 3 = 20 + 3 = 2 3

72 = 23 × 3 + 3 =  69 + 3 = 72

Similarly,

The next number(?) = 72 × 2 + 3 =  144 + 3 = 147

Hence, the next term is 147.
