What is the next number in the sequence? 7 18 29 40 51 ?

7, 18, 29, 40, 51

Step 1: Begin with identifying whether there is a common difference in the sequence or not. 
18-7=11
29-18=11
40-29=11
51-40=11
Step 2: As you can see, there is a common difference of 11 between each term, hence it goes to show that in order to get the next term in the sequence, we need to add 11 to the last term.
51+11= 62
Hence, 62 is the next term in the sequence.
