Which number continues the sequence? 9, 38, 14, 34, 19, 30, ...

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: A. 24

  1. Step 1: Two patterns alternate: +5 in the odd places and -4 in the even places. Step 2. The next number belongs to the first pattern: 19 + 5 = 24. Answer: 24. Why not the others: 26: the second pattern was continued instead of the first. 29: the step was added twice. 19: the step was subtracted.
