What number follows in this sequence, and why??

1, 4, 7, 11, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27, ?

I Absolutely Hate Sequences and Series!

I Firmly believe that they are a Satanic Aberration which Only truly Evil People Understand.

1, 4, 7, 11, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27, 31, 35, 38, 41, 44, 47, 51, …

BTW – I’m not going to say why my Sequence is a Super Set of the Sub Set listed by the OP. Why ruin it for the rest?

 

[shorty70]

zoid...you would be wrong with that superset sequence!

 

[zoiDman]

Actually… My Super Set does Span the Sub Set.

What makes Sequences difficult is that many times there is more that one unique Solution Set.

My Super Set is based on Right most integer value for the sub set which follows the form:

1, 4, 7, 1, 5, 8, 1, 4, 7, 1, 5, 8, 1, .... Xn1*10 + 1, Xn1*10 + 4, Xn1*10 + 7, X(n2*10+1) + 1, X(n2*10+1) + 5, X(n2*10+1) +8, ...

Such that N is the set of all Positive Intergers

So the series: 1, 4, 7, 11, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27, 31, 35, 38, 41, 44, 47, 51, … is infinite and consistent. There can be other Super Sets which contain the original Sub Set. If fact, it can be shown mathematically that there are an Infinite amount of Super Sets that contain the given Sub Set.

We're looking for one number that logically follows 27 and 31 is not it. Sorry.

Like I said, This is what makes sequences difficult. There can me more than one solution for a given sub set.

I'll look at it again and see if I can find the solution you have in mind.

30...y? +3

 

[shorty70]

Spell the numbers out...

 

[shorty70]

OK...here is the answer,

1 has three letters
4 has four letters
7 has five letters
11 has six letters
15 has seven letters

now you get it, so after 27 the next number must be...?

41////?///////////

 

[shorty70]

higher number

 

[zoiDman]

12 Letter Number

 

[classwife]

[zoiDman]

Ding Ding Ding !!!

We have a winner. Who do you want the $1,000,000,000,000 check made out to?

 

[classwife]

LOL well, it was fun any way.

 

[classwife]

Can you imagine the extended hold the bank would put on a check like that .

 

[zoiDman]

LOL well, it was fun any way.

Fun? Are you kidding me?

My desk is full of scraps of paper with cryptic calculation. I haven’t been outside All day and I’ve Chain vaped about 20ml of Cinna-Bomb. I close my eyes and all I see are Numbers Dancing in Random Iterations.

Yeah, fun…

 

[classwife]

Sorry...love it

 

[classwife]

So are the numbers a liked thing or no ?
