Find the next number in the series.
\text{62, 55, 48, 41, \_\_\_}}

Let's find the difference between consecutive numbers in the given sequence:
* $55-62=-7$
* $48-55=-7$
* $41-48=-7$

The series is decreasing by $7$ at each step. Following this constant difference pattern, the next number will be:

$$\text{Next Number}=41-7=34$$
