You are wasting your time, there is no next number in the sequence

It's in an online test for an apprenticeship at IBM so I'm pretty sure it'll have a next number

If there was one and it would probably be something illogical such as the mean of the common difference or the mean of the mean of the common difference + the last term given (31 or 14). If the test isnt multiple choice then just write there isnt one.
