Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the next number in the sequence 2, 4, 8, 16?
Correct Answer: 32
  • Step 1: Look at the first number in the sequence, which is 2.
  • Step 2: Look at the second number, which is 4. Notice that 4 is double 2 (2 x 2 = 4).
  • Step 3: Look at the third number, which is 8. Notice that 8 is double 4 (4 x 2 = 8).
  • Step 4: Look at the fourth number, which is 16. Notice that 16 is double 8 (8 x 2 = 16).
  • Step 5: To find the next number, double the last number (16). So, 16 x 2 = 32.
  • Step 6: Therefore, the next number in the sequence is 32.
