Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

If you regroup the above six words into three pairs, then rearrange the letters within each pair, you can unscramble three two-word answers which are numerically connected. A prize of the Chambers 21st Dictionary will be awarded to the sender of the first correct answer we open on 10 July. Answers to: Perplexity, The Independent, 1 Canada Square, Canary Wharf, London E14 5DL.

The series posed were as follows:
3, 6, 11, 15, 19, 22, 27, 32, 36, 39
3, 9, 10, 11, 12, 17, 18, 27, 29, 31
5, 4, 3, 6, 6, 9, 8, 11, 10
In the first, the differences between successive terms are the numbers of letters in the words one, two, three, four etc. In the second, the terms are formed by adding the digits of the first series: 3, 3+6, 3+6+1, etc. The last gives the number of letters in three, nine, ten etc, from series two.
