Yeah! An easy teaser involving math which is not my best area! I actually got it right and rather quickly. Needed a math ego booster here. Thanks.....
good one
way too easy
easy, but i have a question, u said "what are the next numberS in this sequence" i figured out like 10 more, wasting my time, when all you wanted was 94 or w/e.
nice
what i don't get is why u went 1,2,4 and the rest it was like 5,10,11. You are missing the number 3. That changes the whole answer. Ur just not consistant.
Master Yoda is not wise... your teaser is good. You start from the beginning and just use the system.
Good teaser -- you might want to revise the answer's explanation though by saying that the pattern is add 1 to the first number, x2 to the next, add 1 to the next, etc. For instance, add 1 to 1 to get 2, 2x2=4, 4+1=5, 5x2=10, etc.
Master Yoda is trying to fool himself with the name, because if he had got it, you skipped not only 3, but many more numbers too. he is just a bit dim i am sure. It was way too easy for me, but that doesn't bother me any
Master Yoda is so wrong probably just doesnt understand it..I got it very easily..good starter
i got it, but am confused as to why the 1 was there. the rest makes sense and i thought that, but the one threw me off.
Fun and entertaining teaser; I got it rather quickly but had to think about it for a few minutes.
