What is the missing number in the series 4, 7, 11, 18, 29, 47, _____, 123, 199?
The pattern in this series is that each number (starting from the third number) is the sum of the two preceding numbers. This is a type of Fibonacci sequence.
To find the missing number, we continue the pattern by adding the two numbers that come before it:
29 + 47 = 76
We can check if our answer is correct by continuing the sequence:
The pattern is consistent.
Final Answer: The missing number in the series is 76.
