Logics and Riddles I Trivia Quiz

Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Fill in the blank. 1, 2, 5, 10, 17, 26, ...?

Answer: 37

Every number is a square + 1. 1=0x0+1, 2=1x1+1, 5=2x2+1, ... So 37=6x6+1. Another solution could be: 'you are adding continously higher odd numbers. 1+1 2+3 5+5 10+7 etc' was pointed out to me by Machiabelly...
2. I give you a few numbers, I'd like you to give me the next one: 1, 11, 21, 1211, ?

When you read it very slow, you'll see. The first number reads : one times 1. The second one reads: two times 1. So, the number we search for is: one times 1, one times 2, two times 1.

Answer: 70

The number 2 is the clue here. when you multiply '2' n-times with itself and ad n to the result, you become this row. Starting with n=0, you get 1 (a number to the power zero equals always 1) + 0 = 1. For n=1, we get 2+1=3. For n=2 we get 2x2+2=6. We were looking for n=6 : 2x2x2x2x2x2+6 = 70
4. Take a 3 by 3 square. The first row reads: 3, 5, 8. The second one: 4, 1, 7 and the last one: 14, 12, ... Which number is missing?
