What is the next number in the sequence: 3, 6, 12, 24, 48, ___?
Answer: 96
Each term is multiplied by 2, so 48 × 2 = 96.
Find the missing term: 100, 90, 81, 73, 66, ___?
Answer: 60
The differences decrease by 1 each step (10, 9, 8, 7, 6), so 66 − 6 = 60.
Which number continues the sequence: 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, ___?
Answer: 36
These are perfect squares (1², 2², 3², 4², 5²), so the next is 6² = 36.
What comes next: 2, 5, 11, 23, 47, ___?
Answer: 95
Each term is doubled and then 1 is added: 47 × 2 + 1 = 95.
Identify the next value: 81, 27, 9, 3, ___?
Answer: 1
Each term is divided by 3, so 3 ÷ 3 = 1.
Complete the sequence: 7, 14, 28, 56, ___?
Answer: 112
Each term is multiplied by 2, so 56 × 2 = 112.
What is the missing number: 5, 10, 20, ___, 80?
Answer: 40
The sequence doubles each time, so 20 × 2 = 40.
