what next in 6, 12, -12, 48

Sagot :

Answer:

−336

Step-by-step explanation:

From 6 to 12: This can be seen as multiplying by 2.

6×2=12

From 12 to -12: This can be seen as multiplying by -1.

12×(−1)=−12

From -12 to 48: This can be seen as multiplying by -4.

−12×(−4)=48

Now, if we try to identify a pattern in the multipliers

2,−1,-4

it might not be immediately obvious. However, let's check if there is any cyclical or arithmetic pattern in the multipliers:

The multipliers are

2,−1,−4.

−1: Difference is −3

−1 to −4: Difference is −3

This suggests that the next multiplier might follow the same difference of

−3:

Next multiplier: =  −4 −3 =  −7

Using the multiplier −7:

48× (−7) = −336

So, the next number in the sequence is likely

−336
