6 0

This pattern appears to alternate between doubling and subtracting by 1.

To get from 3 to 6, we multiply by two.
To get from 6 to 5, we subtract one.
To get from 5 to 10, we multiply by two.
To get from 10 to 9, we subtract one.
To get from 9 to 18, we multiply by two.
To get from 18 to 17, we subtract one.

Therefore, next we need to multiply by two.
17 x 2 = 34
So, the next number is 34.

To find the number after, we subtract one.
34 - 1 = 33
Thus, the number after is 33.

In conclusion, the next two numbers are 34 and 33.

Answer:

504

step by step : 14x18=252. 20x18=360. 18x18=324. 58x18=1044. 71x18= 1278. 36x18=648. 28x18=504.

Arrange the data in an ascending order and the median is the middle value. If the number of values is an even number, the median will be the average of the two middle numbers.

The area of this square

ANEK [815]

It appears as if 12cm is half the length of the side so we can assume that the total length of one side is 24cm.

The area of a square is given by the equation $A=s^{2}$ where s is the length of the side.
