What comes next?

Could be 22 if alternating terms are from different sequences:
1, 6, 13, 22, 33, 46, ...
4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, ...

Thanks, I got a few more added to it :

1, 4, 6, 8, 13, 12, 14, 24, 18, ?

Can you see any pattern?

OK now:

1, 4, 6, 8, 13, 12, 14, 24, 18, 20, 11, ?

Do you actually have the answer for this already, or are you trying to figure it out yourself?

No I need the answer myself!

I can find no discernable order of sequence in the numbers provided. Are those numbers you added numbers that are on the clue sheet, or are they numbers you've potentially solved?

Just an idea:


1 3 5 7 9 11 13 15 17 19 21 23 25 ...
1 4 6 8 13 12 14 24 18 20 32 24 31 ...


1:1
1+3=4
1+5=6
1+7=8
1+3+9=13
1+11=12
1+13=14
1+3+5+15=24
1+17=18
1+19=20
1+3+7+21=32 OR 3+7-21=11
1+23=24 OR 1+5-23=17
1+5+25=31 OR …

Questioner, the numbers I added were added to the question, I didn't find them myself.

Tryagain, I'm not sure that's the answer, since the formula you used to find the first few numbers changed towards the end...

Something else, there's no relationship between the numbers themselves...i.e. there is no relationship between 1, 4, 6, 8 etc as such...

An example would be: 1, 4, 9, 16, 25... the next number would be 36 because the numbers themselves are squares but there is no relationship between them.

Answer?
1, 4, 6, 8, 13, 12, 14, 16, 25, 22, 24, 26, 37...

There is a discernable pattern.

1 and 13, and 4, 6, and 8 are separate, but intertwined patterns.

For 1 and 13, there's a difference of twelve, this difference of twelves takes place every 3 (4, 6, 8) numbers.

The 4, 6, 8 go every three numbers, skip the 1, 13 pattern by 4, then continue on adding by 2 for 3 spaces.

It made sense in my head at least. Any ideas?

That's not a pattern so much as an instance. This one is killing me.

i thought i had it with 2n + 1....but its not it

I used this site but it was wrong.....
