Which number continues the sequence? 8, 50, 10, 44, 12, 38, ...
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: D. 14
- Step 1: Two patterns alternate: +2 in the odd places and -6 in the even places. Step 2. The next number belongs to the first pattern: 12 + 2 = 14. Answer: 14. Why not the others: 32: the second pattern was continued instead of the first. 16: the step was added twice. 12: the step was subtracted.
