Question

Find the next three numbers in the pattern. 5, 10, 20, 40, Would I add or multiply?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The rule of the pattern follows that the next number can be found by multiplying the preceeding number by the constant 2

so to find the next three numbers,multiply the preceeding number by 2 thus 5,10,20,40,80(thus 40×2),160(thus 80×2),320(thus 160×2)

Answer 2

Answer:

firstly you know the term of multiplication

like 5*2=10 ,10*2=20, 20*2 =40 and 40*2 =80

and last three numbers are 80, 160,320
