Explanation:

The series starts out with 324 which is 18^2

The next number is 256 which is 16^2

The next number is 196 which is 14^2

The final given number is 144 which is 12^2

===========================

So the next number in line is 100 which is 10^2

The pattern is even numbers that are squared. The even numbers are going down so that the next number down would be 64
