next number is 265
Explain!!!
1^2+2^2=5, 3^2+4^2=25, 5^2+6^2=61, 7^2+8^2=113, 9^2+10^2=181, 11^2+12^2=265.
I´ve got same result, but another solution:
5 -> 20 -> 61 -> 113 -> 181 -> 265
+20 +36 +52 +68 +84
differences between the number you have to add: always 16
so next after 265: 265 + 84 + 16
last result + last added number + 16
Hi All,
265 is the correct answer.
Good job everybody :-)
