It is the sum of the three Consecutive numbers like :
1,3,4,8,15,27
1+(3+4)=8.
3+(4+8)=15.
4+(8+15)=27.
Like wise add the other numbers to get 50.
So, 8+(15+27)=50.
1,3,4,8,15,27
1+(3+4)=8.
3+(4+8)=15.
4+(8+15)=27.
Like wise add the other numbers to get 50.
So, 8+(15+27)=50.

Adding 3 numbers like;
1 + 3 + 4 = 8,
3 + 4 + 8 = 15,
4 + 8 + 15 = 27.
so here;
8 + 15 + 27 = 50.
1 + 3 + 4 = 8,
3 + 4 + 8 = 15,
4 + 8 + 15 = 27.
so here;
8 + 15 + 27 = 50.
