Question

Identify a pattern in the given list of numbers. Then use this pattern to find the next number. (More than one pattern might exist, so it is possible that there is more than one correct answer.)

3,9, 27, 81, 243,
S

Answer 1

Answer: 729

Explanation:

The pattern in the given list of numbers is that each number is obtained by multiplying the previous number by 3. Specifically:

- 3 x 3 = 9

- 9 x 3 = 27

- 27 x 3 = 81

- 81 x 3 = 243

So, to find the next number in the sequence, you would multiply 243 by 3:

243 x 3 = 729

Therefore, the next number in the sequence is 729.
