What is the next in the sequence 2 6 3 8 6 12

Sagot :

11
As you can see, the pattern is subsequently +4, -3, +5, -2, +6, -1 etc.
So, according to this, next sequence should be 12-1=11
The correct answer is: 11

Explanation:
There are two series in the given sequence:

Series-1:
2 3 6 x

Where x represents the number we need to find.

Series-2:
6 8 12

The following pattern is seen in the Series-2:
6 + 2 = 8
8 + 4 = 12

Meaning the additive has the incremental increase of 2 [Like 2, 4, 6, 8 ...].

Likewise,
In Series-1, the following pattern is shown [1,3,5,7...]:
2 + 1 = 3
3 + 3 = 6
6 + 5 = 11

Hence the correct answer is 11.
