Full solution

Q. Type the next number in this sequence:\newline3,  5,  8,  12,  17,  __3,\;5,\;8,\;12,\;17,\;\_\_
  1. Identify Pattern: Identify the pattern in the sequence.\newlineLook at the differences between consecutive terms to see if there is a pattern.\newline53=25 - 3 = 2\newline85=38 - 5 = 3\newline128=412 - 8 = 4\newline1712=517 - 12 = 5\newlineThe differences are increasing by 11 each time.
  2. Determine Difference: Determine the difference between the last known term and the next term.\newlineSince the last difference was 55, the next difference should be 66.
  3. Add to Find Missing Number: Add the next difference to the last known term to find the missing number. 17+6=2317 + 6 = 23 The next number in the sequence should be 2323.
