A series follows: 2, 6, 18, 54, ___. What comes next?
Answer: 162
Each term is multiplied by 3, so 54 × 3 = 162.
Shapes alternate: circle, square, triangle, circle, square, ___. What comes next?

The pattern repeats in groups of three: circle, square, triangle.
A number series reads: 100, 91, 83, 76, 70, ___. What is the next number?

Row 3 needs to sum to 15, and 6 + 4 + 5 = 15.
A pattern of dots increases: 1, 4, 9, 16, ___. What is next?
Answer: 25
These are perfect squares (1², 2², 3², 4²), so the next is 5² = 25.
Letters follow: C, F, I, L, ___. What comes next?
Answer: O
Each letter advances by 3 positions in the alphabet, so L + 3 = O.
A sequence of figures shows triangles with 1, 3, 6, 10, ___ dots. What is next?
