    Re: find the number

    Here is my answer....

    Next number in this series is 24,78.

    Logic:

    1,3,,5 th terms incrase the number 4,6,...
    2,4,6 th terms increase the number 12,18,....

    Is there any problem for this logic?

    Mutiply the intial number by 3 and then divide the next number by 2.

    Re: find the number

    thats what iam telling suresh

    your ans should be 26(and not 24)!If i go with your formula


    see


    12-8= 4

    18-12=6

    so the next term should be 18+8 and not 18+6

    r u getting me?


    bye
