Let's thing a little bit...
we have...
8
14
21
29
Can you see it now?!
8 + 6 = 14
14 + 7 = 21
21 + 8 = 29
so
29 + 9 = 38
8,14,21,29,38, The missing sequence number is 38
The missing number in the series 8, 14, 21, 29, ?, 3 is 38. This is determined by observing that the differences between the numbers increase consecutively from 6 to 8. Following the established pattern, we add 9 to 29 to arrive at 38.
