Answer:

C.64

Explanation:

The first step is to figure out what the sequence is, the first step is 2, 4 the only ways for 2 to get to 4 would be +2 or *2 so we will look at the next step, 4 to 8. The only ways for 4 to get to 8 is +4 or *2, since these both have *2 in common we will check that with all of the terms

2, 4, 8, 16, 32

2 (*2) = 4 (*2) = 8 (*2) = 16 (*2) 32

Since the equation is working we are going to multiply 32 by 2 to get the 6th term

32 (*2) = 64
