Question

What is the missing number in the sequence below? 4.12.36.__,324,972,2916

Answer 1

108

Explanation:

Each time you are multiplying the next number by 3

Answer 2

108

Explanation:

It is a geometric sequence, so you're always multiplying or dividing by the same amount.

Here, you're multiplying each term by 3 to get the next one.

So, 36*3 = 108

You can then check if this answer is correct by dividing the next term (324) by 3 to see if you get 108.

324/3 = 108

Therefore, the answer is 108.
