Find the next number 7.14.28.56, ?*

Sagot :

Answer: 112

Explanation:

The sequence we have is:

[tex]7,14,28,56[/tex]

We can see that the numbers are all multiples of 7:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 7\times1=7 \\ 7\times2=14 \\ 7\times4=28 \\ 7\times8=56 \end{gathered}[/tex]

In each step, the number we multiply 7 by, doubles.

So the next number must be 7 multiplied by double of 8 which is 16:

[tex]7\times16=112[/tex]

Another way to see this sequence is that each number is twice the previous number:

14 is twice 7

28 is twice 14

56 is twice 28

So the next number must be twice 56:

[tex]56\times2=112[/tex]

In any case, the next number is 112
