What is the next number in the sequence: 3, 6, 12, 24, 48, ___?

Answer: 64
Each term decreases by 9, so 73 − 9 = 64.
What comes next: 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, ___?
Answer: 36
These are perfect squares (1², 2², 3²…), so the next is 6² = 36.
Which number continues the pattern: 2, 5, 11, 23, 47, ___?
Answer: 95
Each term is doubled then incremented by 1, so 47 × 2 + 1 = 95.
Find the next term: 81, 27, 9, 3, ___?
Answer: 1
Each term is divided by 3, so 3 ÷ 3 = 1.
