What should the last five numbers in this sequence be?
Adam Spencer, comedian, mathematician, and author of The Number Games, wrote this riddle, which was then shared by Reader's Digest. It lists the numbers one through 19 in a particular order, leaving the riddle-solver to determine what order the last five numbers should go in.
The answer — the numbers are listed in alphabetical order according to the way they're spelled. The last five numbers in the sequence would be 10, 13, 3, 12, and 2.
You can find a full explanation of the answer on Reader's Digest.
This, Ladies and gentleman, this is the reason why smart people can pretend to be stupid, but stupid people can never successfully pretend to be smart.
