Because it contains "math"?
I knew it.

]]>Hi, I was wondering if I could get your help on some particular number sequence questions and the tricks behind them.
Here are a few.
10, ?, 41, 17, 52, 09
15, ?, 70, 18, 52, 00
Try breaking up the numbers into sets of three digits. Remove the commas and try to find a pattern in:
. . . . .10_, _41, 175, 209
. . . . .15_, _70, 185, 200
There is no real "trick" to this. I just happened to think of it and it just happened to work.

The trouble is: there's no obvious pattern so no wonder you are stuck. If you write down any five numbers at random, it is possible to fit a formula to them but that's not what you want I suspect.
These go up and down so that counts out 'plus x', 'subtract x' , 'multiply by x' and 'divide by x'. So I thought maybe there are two interlocked sequences, but I haven't got enough numbers for that, so I have to admit defeat at the moment. Sorry
But this post will refresh the thread with New Post so maybe someone else will spot something.
