Solution

The sequence doesn't seem to follow a clear mathematical pattern at first glance. However, if we look closer, we can see that the difference between consecutive numbers is increasing by 2 each time:

  • 13 - 19.8 = -6.8
  • 21 - 13 = 8
  • 32 - 21 = 11
  • 47 - 32 = 15
  • 63 - 47 = 16

The difference should have been 19 (15 + 4) instead of 16. Therefore, the number 63 is wrong. It should have been 66 (47 + 19) to follow the pattern.

The number 8347633283 is also wrong as it doesn't fit into this pattern at all.
