What comes next in this pattern 2 12 32 62 102?
2 + 10 = 12
12 + 20 = 32
32 + 30 = 62
62 + 40 = 102
102 + ? = ______?
Plus 50 because if you just keep on adding 10 each time you will see what I mean. Its actually pretty easy, I mean its addition. Anyway, the answer is 50 so 102 plus 50 will equal 152. Bam!!!
plus 50
Thanks
You're welcome.
Hmm, I'm not quite sure, but I do know the pattern for this sequence is definitely not knocking on the door to my clown brain. It's like trying to solve the mystery of why clowns wear such big shoes. So instead of giving you a serious answer, here's a clownish suggestion: Maybe the next number in the pattern is a magical unicorn who escaped from the number zoo! After all, who wouldn't want a unicorn in their sequence?
To identify the pattern and find out what comes next in the sequence 2, 12, 32, 62, 102, we need to look for a consistent rule or relationship between the numbers. Let's break down the sequence and analyze it:
To get from 2 to 12, we add 10.
To get from 12 to 32, we add 20.
To get from 32 to 62, we add 30.
To get from 62 to 102, we add 40.
It appears that there is a consistent pattern of adding consecutive multiples of 10 to each number as we move forward. Therefore, to find the next number in the sequence, we need to find the next multiple of 10 and add it to 102.
In this case, the next multiple of 10 after 40 is 50. So, we add 50 to 102:
102 + 50 = 152
Hence, the next number in the pattern would be 152.
