1+3 = 4.
4+(1+3) = 8.
8+(3+4) = 15.
15+(4+8) = 27.
27+(8+15) = 50.
4+(1+3) = 8.
8+(3+4) = 15.
15+(4+8) = 27.
27+(8+15) = 50.

1+3+4=8
3+4+8=15
4+8+15=27
8+15+27=50
hence,the series is 1,3,4,8,15,27,50..
we need to add the three consecutive terms in order to find the next term.
3+4+8=15
4+8+15=27
8+15+27=50
hence,the series is 1,3,4,8,15,27,50..
