For the last one I thought it was •5-4-4 were always the last three of any sequence •If the row is an even number, its first number will be the sum of all the numbers of the previous row and it will have 3 numbers other than 5-4-4. •If the row is an odd number its first number will be the first number of the previous row minus the first number of the previous of previous row and it will have 2 numbers other than 5-4-4. •For the rows that are an even number if they are between two other rows I saw that Its 2nd number will be the first of the next row minus the first of the previous row,the third will be the 2nd of the next row minus the 2nd of the previous row. •For the rows that are an odd number because they have one less number than even rows, their 2nd number will be the 2nd number of the next row minus the 2nd number of the previous row. I kinda just assumed it would work like that for the last step but with this I explained every number in there except the first two numbers of the first row which I assumed were random, so with this I got that the last numbers are 34-19-11-5-4-4

You can also write Fibonacci non-recursively the following way: F_n = (ϕ^n - Φ^n)/ (ϕ - Φ) where ϕ = (1+√5)/2 and Φ = (1-√5)/2

Great vid! You can approximate any sequence with a polynomial of the same order as the number of terms. It will give you a valid result, just maybe not the one you're looking for.

It would be cool to see one of these dedicated to trig equatons if possible.

my solution to every sequence is 0. The general term a_n shall be defined as follows: a_n = a_k for the first k presented numbers where a_k is the kth one and a_n = 0 when n > k.

@@sanjukumari7684 Sure, as long as the different solutions don't offer different results it's still a good problem to pose.

Got level 10 a lil differently...I just found the differences, and got a pattern with differences, *3-2,*3-8,*3-24, *3-64, and with this got 2+6=8. 8+16=24.24+40=64, but this matched up with the differnces first found, meaning the next differnce added is 96, then 96+64=160, so if *3-160, we get the last difference found, 224, so 224*3-160, resulting in 512, so added onto 383, we get 895. :)

Technically, you could also fit a polynomial to the numbers in level 10: Using some linear algebra, I got 11/60(x^5) - 2(x^4) + 125/12(x^3) - 24(x^2) + 29.4x - 13. And using this polynomial, we could say that the missing number could also be 869 (if you plug 7 into my polynomial)!

for level six i thought 3 to 11 is adding 8 which is 2*4 then 11 to 26 is adding 15 which is 3*5 so you add 1 to each and multiply those then add it to the actual number

For level 10, I took the second order difference and got 10,24,56,128 That 128 looked odd since it's a power of two so I tried to factor them and after a bit of messing around I got 5×2 , 6×4 , 7×8 , 8×16 The first factor is increasing by one and the second factor is a power of two! So logically the next number is 9×32. From that you can get the next number which is the same as what you got

Got em all haha, knew most of the unique ones before 9 and figured out the rest

I lost at 9, but I technically used a hint at 7 (Paused after he mentioned see and say, which drastically helped me)

I figured out 1-6 and 11 completely on my own, and I sort of got 8 as well (I let it play to the part where he called out the 2nd number as strange, and then I figured it out before he was able to continue)

i got lvl 8 bcuz of make ur head spin and im so proud

In level 11, the solution only works for numbers in English. Other languages would not work. You would also get a different answer if you used the number of characters in the number's name (in English), not letters. The bottom row would then be 11,6,3,5,4,4 and would also be correct.

I spent so long on the last one trying to find an equation that would grow when less than 4 shrink when greater than four and stay the same when at four only for me to finally give up and unpause the video. You immediately said let’s count the number of letters and I died a little on the inside xD. Solved all the other sequences, granted I’d have probably also failed the 7th had I not seen it as a kid and had an obsession with it xD

Level 5’s hint was genius.

Damn, I have never actually tried these and have never seen them explained. I really liked it and now Im all gored up about doing a whole lot of these to improve my thinking hahaha.

Pretty good one

I made it up to level 8, and also was quickly able to do level 11 because I remembered one Vsauce video about it 9/11, very fun! (although Idk how but I struggled a lot at question 3)

1:59 could i have said dual sequence (two sequences smashed together into one, alternating terms)

We want part 2 please 🙏

Got them all eventually - funnily enough, I think I got stuck on the cubic the longest

Alternate answer for 6: each time, you’re adding 1 to both numbers being multiplied; ex: 2x4,3x5,4x6,5x7, then 6x8, so it actually continues the pattern correctly. That’s at least what I got

Level 4 is also the number of possible pairs that can be chosen from n items. n×(n+1)÷2

I got 9 out of 11! Levels 6 and 9 (nice) were the ones that stumped me, the rest I managed to get. For level 10, I found yet another different way. I noticed that each term was a little more than double the last, so I started with finding the difference between t and 2(t - 1). For example, with the 7, 7 - 2 × 1 = 5. These results gave 9, 17, 33 and 65 for the subsequent terms - all being one more than powers of two (5 being 2² + 1, 9 being 2³ + 1, etc). So I knew the next difference would be 129 (one more than 2⁷ + 1), meaning the next term would be 383 × 2 + 129, or 895. The formula for my solution, therefore, is as follows: t(n) = 2t(n - 1) + 2^n + 1

Level 9 would have also worked in a way that you divide the next number with the current number and replace the answer with the next number. So 49 / 7 = 7, 97 / 7 = 13, 130 / 13 = 10 and 10 / 10 = 1. Not sure if it's coincidental or it can be mathematically proven to why the answer turned out correct, all I know is that I got it right lol. Loved this video, really excited to see the upcoming ones!

So is there actually a formula for lv 7, 8, 9 and 11?

This is the first time I've ever gotten all of them! Good video

10/10 done

Got em all except 10, but I already knew some of them. For 11 I struggled though I had the right intuition, then I realized I counted the letters in my native language (French) instead of English 😅 Great puzzles!

And today's useless information is: in French the final loop is made out of 4 digits: 4 (quatre), 6 (six), 3 (trois), 5 (cinq), 4, 6, 3, 5, 4, ...

Got all of them eventually!! A couple were tough though. And my method for question 10 was really obscure. I looked at the difference between each term and 3 times the difference between the two previous terms, giving 5, 15, 39 and 95. From there I looked at the difference between each term and two times the previous term, giving 5, 9 and 17. I then noticed that each of these was one more than a piece of two, so the next of these was 33. This means the next number in the sequence 5, 15, 39, 95 should be 95*2 + 33 = 223. Then the final number in the original sequence should be 223 + 3(383-159) = 895. Very complicated but somehow worked 😂

бро пытается не придумать закономерность, а пойти хитростью

Made it up to level 7, that level 11 was very brutal

For level 10, I looked at all the differences and divided them by 4. I saw that the numbers (1.5, 4, 10, 24 and 56) were the differences of the differences of the differences before them (example: 10 was the difference of 6 and 16). So I just followed that pattern and came to the conclusion that the last difference is 128 x 4 which is 512. 383 + 512 = 895 :)

couldnt do level 9 and so on

I miss 7 9 11 About the ten i've found another way to find the solution I calculate all Number *2 and i calculate differences between the Number doubled and the next number 1*2=2 next number 7 7*2=14 next number 23 23*2=46 next number 63 63*2=126 next number 159 159*2=318 next number 383 383*2=766 next number unknown Differences: 5 9 17 33 65 ? I saw After a Little while that numbers are tied up by the formula 2n-1: 5->10-1=9 9->18-1=17 17->34-1=33 33->66-1=65 65->130-1=129 I have to add 129 to 766 (383*2) 766+129= 895 Now, i know that the other way seems very easier than that, but It was difficult to find that pattern

Another formula for lvl 4 could be tn=1/2n(n+1)

I started struggling at number 7 and got max points at the math part of mensa IQ test and also max points at maths during university in almost every test😂 at least i noticed there probably isn‘t an arithmetical sequence but some sort of concatination of the previous two numbers or so but i overthought it.

i dont like the ones where it has nothing to do with number patterns and instead its a "think-outside-the-box" one like 7

Unfortunately I didn't find a number looking like an upside down seven. Aside from that, surprisingly, I got it all right :o

Got 7/11 first 6 and then number 8(cuz of that parking riddle)

Maths is magic man....

i tried the spelling of the numbers as my first thought in almost everyone of the sequences then when i gave up n thought you wouldn't do it, you did it

Levels 1-5: I didn't need to pause the video to solve it. Levels 6-8: I solved it after pausing the video. Level 9: I didn't solve it. It turns out I don't like properties that work only in decimal rather than that it is a property of the number itself. Level 10: I solved it using t_n = 2*t_(n-1) + 1 + 2^n. Level 11: I didn't solve it. It turns out I don't like it when it works only in a certain language the numbers are written.

I got 10 in a different way: In here each line is the difference of the line above (I added the original at the end to do the final addition): 1,7,23,63,159,383, _895_ 6 16 40 96 224 _512_ 10 24 56 128 _288_ 14 32 72 _160_ 18 40 _88_ 22 _48_ _26_ When you choose to put in prime factors each value you get a arithmetic sequence of multiples of two: 2* *3* 2^4 2^3*5 2^5*3 2^5*7 2* *5* 2^3*3 2^3*7 2^7 2* *7* 2^5 2^3*3^2 2* *9* 2^3*5 2* *11* 2* *13*

For level 8, I already felt it was rotated by 180⁰ when I just saw the 8, and then I remember the thing I learnt when I was small (I solved it) For level 11, it would be unfair to those who don't speak English as their native language (like me), but I realised that 7+5+4+4=20 and 13+8+5+4+4=34 I solved 7 sequences, level 9-10 are just too hard for me and level 7 I thought it would be 1112211 (I realised the numbers ends with a 1 and two 1s alternatively and every number becomes longer than the previous one)

Fun, but level 11 shows that when using this kind of sequence, language is important. For example, use german. the sequences qould have been 7, 6, 5, 4, 4 | 20, 7, 6, 5, 4, 4 | 13, 8, 4, 4 | 34 14 8, 4, 4 which are vastly different apart from the final "four four" parts. take spanish it would have been 7, 5, 5 | 20, 6, 4, 6, 4, 6, 4... | 13, 5, 5 | 34, 14 (or 16 when counting spaces), 7 (9), 5 (5), 5 (5) As there are viewers from other countries who may or may not think about numbers in their native language, the given sequences are quite unintuitive.
