Example Question #162 : How To Work With Number Series
What is the next number in this sequence?
55, 54, 56, 53, 57, 52, _______
There are two ways to look at this pattern.
First, the pattern could be viewed as:
-1, +2, -3, +4, -5, +6
Secondly, you could view the sequence as two separate, alternating patterns.
Pattern A (55, 56, 57) and Pattern B (54, 53, 52). In this case, Pattern A increases by 1 each time; Pattern B decreases by 1 each time.
