3, 7, 25, 10, __, 20, 16, 19
3, 7, 25
7 + 3 = 10,
10+3=13,
25-5=20.
13+3=16,
16+3=19,
20-5=15.
Therefore: 3, 7, 25, 10, 13, 20, 16, 19, 15
3, 7, 25
7 + 3 = 10,
10+3=13,
25-5=20.
13+3=16,
16+3=19,
20-5=15.
Therefore: 3, 7, 25, 10, 13, 20, 16, 19, 15

4, 7, 25, 10, __, 20, 16, 19, ... (TWO set of series).
4, 4+3=7, 7+3=10, 10+3=13, 13+3=16---> 4,7,10,13,16 13 is the right answer.
4, 4+3=7, 7+3=10, 10+3=13, 13+3=16---> 4,7,10,13,16 13 is the right answer.

4 + 6 = 10,
10 + 6 = 16,
25 - 5 = 20,
20 - 5 = 15,
7 + 6 = 13,
13 + 6 = 19.
10 + 6 = 16,
25 - 5 = 20,
20 - 5 = 15,
7 + 6 = 13,
13 + 6 = 19.
