I found another (awkward)pattern. If you add the two outside numbers from each row, subtract 1 from the sum and lastly pick the ending digit of the number, that would be your numerical value in the middle. If you limit the numerical variables to single digit numbers then the number to the left in the last row would have been five. E.g.-

7+8=15-1=14 (four)
3+7=10-1=9 (nine)
6+10=16-1=15 (five) and lastly you would have
x+4-1=8, your answer would be 5,

7 comes next; you are listing prime numbers and perfect squares in numerical order.

Oh, and, as a random addition, I found another pattern. In the 1st and 3rd lines, the middle number is the lowest number, while the outside two are higher, and lines 2 and 4 are the opposite. That’s the first pattern I was trying to follow.

Yay, I got 3 also. I’m not usually amazing with math, so I’m very surprised that I got it. But I solved it the exact same way as icanrule. Great minds think alike, I suppose
