Question

identify a pattern in the given list of numbers. then use this pattern to find the next number.​ 2,6,11,17,24,32

Answer 1

Next Number: 41

Explanation:

The pattern is simply where the numbers go +1, +2, +3 and so on.

This can be applied in this sequence as we can se 2 --> 6 = +4

6 --> 11 = +5

11 --> 17 = +6

and so on...

Thus, we know this is the pattern and can simply add to 32.

24 --> 32 = +8, so the next is +9

32 + 9 = 41, and so, the next number in the sequence is 41 giving us our final answer.
