so the answer will be 136 - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(3) No(1)
- 7=2^2+3
12=2^3+4
21=2^4+5
38=2^5+6
71=2^6+7
136=2^7+8
265=2^8+9....so on - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(2)
- 136 is the correct answer
- 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(1)
- ans is 7,12,21,38,71,136,265
12-7=5=>7-2=5
21-12=9 => 12-3=9
38-21=17 => 21-4=17
71-38=33 => 38-5=33
next no is 71+(71-6)=136
..136+(136-7)=265 - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(1)
- 7=2^2+3
12=2^3+4
21=2^4+5
38=2^5+6
71=2^6+7

265=2^8+9 - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(1)
- the next two no. of series 7,12,21,38,71,..,.. is 136 and 257
reason:
the pattern of series is 2^(n+1) +(n+2)
where n=term of series
therefore to find 6th and 7th we put n=6,7
we get 6th term = 136 and 7th term=257 - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(4)
