Just because 4 is not shown in the equation does not mean it should be ignored completely. Numbers 8 through to 5 were to show you the pattern, omitting 4 was to throw you off

Mmmm.....i hear you but i wasnt thrown off. I think overanalysis=paralysis which would be including the 4 instead of ignoring it, anyway, could be reverse engineered to make people think that way. Doesnt matter....theres no prize anyway :-(LOL !!!

Lol yanky I just wanted to see how many problems solving geniuses there are on Esa.

Uncle Ben correct there are more than one sequence and since you the only one that showed the equation I would have to call you a genius too ;)

And yes sir you to that were whispering off forum lol #bloeing a kiss#

Ben & Crave're correct, in fact Arhwen's answer is wrong.

(x**2)-x is the correct answer, or at the very least one of the indisputably correct answers.

Now for the real fun - Arhwen, what do you think?

If you go by the original sequence (read the 1st page of posts) then its easy as 2=1.
