these are prime numbers -- numbers who are not divisible by any number other than 1 and itself.
The next one after 11 is 13, then 17.

Hello There,
This is a pretty easy one when you know what to look for.
2,3,5,7,11
Now, how much is this adding up by each time?
1 2 2 4
So , this is the pattern we are seeing here. If it continues with this pattern, then wouldn't we see it go like this?
1 2 2 4 5 7 7 11 12 14 14 18...and so on so forth.
I hope this helps!

Also, another thing i thought of last minute, i think that answer would be averaging. You would average this and that would be the answer. LEts try:
1+2+2+4=9
9÷4=2.25
