896, 3687, 749, 34448, 836,
What is the 20th number in the sequence? This has been driving me Insane

The puzzle is the even numbers spelled out, typed on a phone keypad, which has the letters abc on 2, def on 3, etc...
"two" = 896
"four" = 3687
"six" = 749
"eight" = 34448
"ten" = 836
so the 20th number in the sequence corresponds to
"forty" = 36789

656, far as I can tell every 5th number is 60 less than the last. I'm not sure what kind of sequencing you're doing though. But that's my reasoning behind that.

36789
It took me a whole 10 minutes to see the pattern, too.
