Question 1142450: 8,5,4,9,1,7,_
What should be the answer after 7? Our subject is Mathematics in the Modern World and the lesson is about Patterns and Numbers in Nature and the World. I'm not really sure if the answer is 3 or 6😢. Please help me solve this. Thank you!

You can put this solution on YOUR website! Not a pattern and not enough terms (maybe) to find a pattern
Only looks like some random one-digit whole numbers. No repeats seen in first five terms. If that's all then possible next choice could be any one of 2, 3, 6.

You can put this solution on YOUR website! I hope this was just a puzzle your teacher gave, because it is not really a good math problem, IMO. It might be the sequence of single digit numbers listed in alphabetical order.
In that case, six (6) comes next.
eight
five
four
nine
one
seven

three
two
zero
