Answer» Answer: What is the next number of the sequence 3, 12, 21, _, _, _? The PATTERN from what is given looks to be that 3, 12, 21, _, _, _ is 3, 3+9, 12+9, _, _, _ ⟹3, 3+9, 3+18, _, _, _ ⟹3+9×0, 3+9×1, 3+9×2, _, _, _. So, continued on INDEFINITELY, the nth––– number of the given sequence is 3+9n. So the 4th number is obtained by letting n=4 in the formula: 3+4×9=3+36=39. Filling in the next two blanks SHOWN in the question, get 3+5×9=3+45=48 and 3+6×9=3+54=57.
