Step-by-step explanation:

I just usually do this trick in situations like these where if x equals 1, and y equals 2, then z is gonna be 3. 2 goes after 1, and 3 goes after 2. This trick can work in other counting-up situations like this, as long as the number go up, and are right next to each other.
