Question

What is the next number in the sequence?6,12,24,48A.72B.96C.108D.112E.124

Answer 1

The given sequence is

`6,12,24,48`

Since

`\begin{gathered} (12)/(6)=2 \\ (24)/(12)=2 \\ (48)/(24)=2 \end{gathered}`

Then the sequence is geometric with a common ratio of 2

Then to find the next term multiply 48 by 2

`48*2=96`

The second term is 96

The answer is B
