Question

My first number is -2, my fifth number is 26
What is my third number?
​

Answer 1

Firstly, Subtract the smallest number from the largest number

26 - - 2 = 28

28 spans over 5 numbers so we divide it to figure out the difference between each number

28 / 5 = 5.6

-2 is the 1st number

+5.6

3.6 is the 2nd number

+5.6

9.2 is the 3rd number
