    2 numbers missing from each here is the sequence,20.02,18.04,16.06
    This is the sequence I have tried I thought all but nothing has panned out. Here you go in the sequence 20,02._ _,18.04._ _.16.06._ _? There are two numbers missing from each to decipher the code I need to know those two numbers. Can anyone help

    I am looking for the 2 missing numbers from each group, using the sequence
    20.02 _ _, 18.04_ _, 16.06_ _ what would be the missing sequence in each group

    Just a wild guess, but would this work:

    20.02, 19.03, 18.04, 17.05, 16.06.

    No, not at all. I did not do a minus .99 for each iteration.

    I subrtacted 1 from the first pair and then added one to the second pair.

    If you look at the srings separatley you will see that it is:

    20, 19, 18, 17, 16,

    1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6.

    It's the same thing, provided that the whole numbers in the sequence are 'entire numbers'.

    What I mean is that if it were like those:

    (20, 1), (21, 4), (22, 9), etc.

    Then I would have taken them separately. But since it's a decimal, I prefer looking at the entire number instead, if possible.
