Fill in the blanks with the missing factors

Question

1, 2, _, 4, 6, _, 12, _, 21, 28, 42, 84}

Answer 1

To fill in the blanks in the sequence {1, 2, _, 4, 6, _, 12, _, 21, 28, 42, 84}, let's first analyze the given numbers:

• The given numbers appear to be factors of 84, as 84 is the largest number present, and the other numbers listed are indeed factors of 84.
• The factors of 84 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 12, 14, 21, 28, 42, and 84.

Based on the factors of 84, we can fill in the missing blanks:

1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 12, 14, 21, 28, 42, 84

So, the missing factors are 3, 7, and 14.
