The first one I knew, incidentally, I was playing number games with my 10 year old son & used that series. He rapidly guessed the solution & added that the series can only consist of the numbers 1 2 & 3.

The 2nd I was just lucky on, after looking at the numbers I thought they must be some other base than 10 & it took me a bit longer to realise that they were all different bases.
