21+18=39 39-10=29
25+18=43 43-10=33
18 is interpolated as every third number,so the changed numbers should be after 18
the series 21 25 18 29 33 18
now, 29+18=47 47-10=37
33+18=51 51-10=41 so the next numbers -- 37 41
series -- 21 25 18 29 33 18 37 41
25+18=43 43-10=33

21+4=25 (21,25)
SKIP 18
25+4=29 (25,18,29)
29+4=33 (29,33)
SKIP 18
33+4=37 (33,18,37)
37+4=41 (37,41)
SKIP 18
41+4=45 (41,18,45)
45+4=49 (45,49)
SKIP 18 N SO ON
SO THE FINAL SERIES WILL BE 21,25,18,29,33,18,37,41,18........
SO THE ANSWER IS 37,41
SKIP 18
25+4=29 (25,18,29)
29+4=33 (29,33)
SKIP 18
33+4=37 (33,18,37)
37+4=41 (37,41)
SKIP 18
41+4=45 (41,18,45)
45+4=49 (45,49)
SKIP 18 N SO ON
SO THE FINAL SERIES WILL BE 21,25,18,29,33,18,37,41,18........
SO THE ANSWER IS 37,41

21+4=25---25,18
25+4=29---29,18
29+4=33---33,18
33+4=37---37,18
So the answer is 37,18 that's it
25+4=29---29,18
29+4=33---33,18
33+4=37---37,18
So the answer is 37,18 that's it

In the above series 18 is interpolated as 3rd number. ie., after 21 25 and 29 33.
4 is added to each number to get teh next number. Ie., 21+4=25 (21 25)
25+4=29
29+4=33 (29 33)
Add 4 to 33
33+4=37
37+4=41 (37 41)
I hope this is clear!
