OpenStudy (anonymous):

I believe you missed a number in the sequence. No?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'd say 14.

hartnn (hartnn):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes hartnn is correcct, 17 is the answer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

How did you get that answer Hartnn and Ryuu?

hartnn (hartnn):

u know about prime numbers ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes

hartnn (hartnn):

so whats the prime number after 13 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

in a way you may have thought the answer to go by specifics and the first responce was 2, but it continued in this sequence: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, .. but these numbers are prime numbers.. so the list goes 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29.. so on..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

17

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):
