Question

What is the sum of the fifth line from the below pattern

2 = 2
2 + 4 = 6
2 + 4 + 6 = 12

Answer 1

48

Explanation:

2 = 2 line 1

2 + 4 = 6 line 2

2 + 4 + 6 = 12 line 3

The next line we would add 12 since we are adding the sum of the previous line

2 + 4 + 6 +12 = 24 line 4

The next line we would add 24 since we are adding the sum of the previous line

2 + 4 + 6 +12+24 = 48 line 5
