Observe the number of columns 3, 8, 15, 24, 35, 48 By analogy, the smallest integer larger than 2014 in this sequence is

Observe the number of columns 3, 8, 15, 24, 35, 48 By analogy, the smallest integer larger than 2014 in this sequence is

3=1×3
8=2×4
15=3×5
24=4×6
35=5×7
48=6×8
Item 43: 43 × 45 = 1935 < 2014
Item 44: 44 × 46 = 2024 > 2014
So, it's item 44
