21 is Common in this Series.
So you can See,
=> 8 + 3 = 11.
=> 15 + 3 = 18.
=> 22 + 3 = 25.
Answer comes (25 21).

8 + 7 = 15,
15 + 7 = 22,
11 + 7 = 18,
18 + 7 = 25,
21 is constant.
Every number add 7 except 21.
15 + 7 = 22,
11 + 7 = 18,
18 + 7 = 25,
21 is constant.
Every number add 7 except 21.

Leaving 21 as a third number.
8 + 3 = 11,
15 + 3 = 18,
22 + 3 = 25 so answer will be 25 21, and also first number difference is 7.
