Hi,

It is a series of odd prime numbers. Prime numbers is a that  numbers which is only divisible by itself and 1.

so next odd number in the number series which is divisible by only itself and 1 is 17. So the next number given series  will be 17.

Hope it helps.

Hey, if it is a series of prime numbers, then 5 must have been included..! And in case you take it as series of alternative primes, then there is no prime between (7 and 11) and also between (11 and 13).

Sai Sri Nandan Ch 🤔 in that case you can also take it as a possiblity of +4,+4,+2 repition series than in that case the cycle will restart with +4 +4,+2 this logic also give 17 as the answer. Look at follow-
3+4= 7
7+4 = 11
11+2= 13
13+4 =17
17+4 = 21
21+2= 23 ....and so on.
