Challenge: Find the missing number in a logical sequence
The challenge is to find the missing number in one logical sequence in a maximum of 20 seconds. The proposed logical sequence is the following: 6, 18, 15, 45, 42, 126, ?.
To find a pattern of a logical sequence, it is important to carefully examine the list or series of events. Try to identify any repetitions, progressions o regularity.
It may be helpful to write the sequence on a piece of paper and underline or highlight any patterns that emerge. If you can’t see a pattern at first, try shuffling the elements or looking at the sequence from a different perspective.
Remember that not all sequences will have a clear and obvious pattern. The practice it is critical to becoming proficient at finding patterns in logical sequences.
Have you found the solution? I hope so! But don’t worry, if you’re not sure, I’m here to help! In the next paragraph you will be able to check if you were successful. Ready for fun? Let’s go!
The Solution to the Mystery
Congratulations to everyone who found the answer in less than 20 seconds. We are truly impressed by your quickness and mental acumen.
For those who couldn’t understand, don’t worry. We will now explain how we achieved this solution.
Looking carefully at the sequence, you notice that there is an alternating pattern of multiplication and subtraction.
Specifically, each number in the sequence is the result of multiplying the previous number by three or subtracting three from the previous number.
For example, the second number (18) is the result of multiplying the first number (6) by three. The third number (15) is the result of subtracting three from the second number (18).
Following this pattern, the last missing number should be the result of subtracting three from the second to last number (126). So, to solve this challenge, you will have to subtract three from 126.
