the 5th has to complete the pattern. And they can't be asking you the question to some random ass pattern. So the pattern has to make sense.
so 2y how da **** u going to get that, or 3y none of this is possible to get.
but 2z
Cause the 1st one is 5 then it goes to 10
then theres some random ass number
then its 40, then its going to jump to 80
3rd number counts for ****.
like 1,2,1059,3,?
the last one is going to be 4, not 9 or 1054 or 6 or 0, 4 is the only predictable 5th number
ok what they did was the pattern doubles
5 10 20 40 80
but instead its a pattern that doubles but they made the 3rd number irrelevant
5 10 1059 40 ?
80 is the 5th
its like they said the 3rd number is x instead of an actual number
