What is the next number: 1, 2, 4, 7, 11, 16, ___?
Answer: 22
Differences are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 — increasing by 1, so 16 + 6 = 22.
Find the missing number: 512, 256, 128, ___, 32
Answer: 64
Each term is halved, so 128 ÷ 2 = 64, and 64 ÷ 2 = 32 confirms it.
Complete the series: 1, 3, 7, 15, 31, ___
Answer: 63
Each term follows the rule 2n − 1 (or: ×2 +1), so 31 × 2 + 1 = 63.
What comes next: 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, ___?
Answer: 64
These are perfect squares starting at 3², and the next is 8² = 64.
Find the next term: 5, 7, 12, 19, 31, ___?
Answer: 50
Each term is the sum of the two preceding terms, so 19 + 31 = 50.
What is the missing number: 1000, 200, 40, ___, 1.6?
Answer: 8
Each term is divided by 5, so 40 ÷ 5 = 8, and 8 ÷ 5 = 1.6 confirms it.
What comes next: 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, ___?
Answer: 55
Each term is the sum of the two previous terms (Fibonacci-type), so 21 + 34 = 55.
