Take alternate series 4,8,12.
Now .
4*2=8
4*3=12
4*4=16.
From here you can see every previous digit is 1 less then current digit according to the whole series.
So, the answer is 15.

Sequential number by adding 3 to next sequential number so the answer is 15.

There is a simple logic.
3 + 1 = 4.
4 + 3 = 7.
7 + 1 = 8.
8 + 3 = 11.
11 + 1 = 12.
12 + 3 = 15.
This is the answer.
3 + 1 = 4.
4 + 3 = 7.
7 + 1 = 8.
8 + 3 = 11.
11 + 1 = 12.
12 + 3 = 15.
This is the answer.

As per my logic, we have to add 4 to alternate series.

For alternative numbers we have to add 4 to get the next number.

The logic is, +1, +3, +1, +3, +1, +3, and you get the answer.

This sums odd numbers to +1 and even numbers to +3 we get the answer.

Alternate even numbers (4, 8, 12), alternate odd numbers (3, 7, 11, 15).
