Explanation

The series is two interleaved sequences: 1, 7, 13, ... (adding 6) and 2, 7, 12, ... (adding 5). The next term in the first sequence is 13 + 6 = 19.

AI explanation

The series is formed by interleaving two separate patterns. The first pattern is 1, 7, 13, and the next number is found by adding 6 to 13. The second pattern is 2, 7, 12, which also increases by 5. The missing term belongs to the first pattern, making it 13 plus 6, which equals 19.
