Find the next three terms of the sequence –8, 24, –72, 216, . . .

Question

248, –616, 248

–648, 1944, –5832

648, –1944, 5832

216, –648, 1944

Answer 1

The pattern in the sequence is multiplying each term by -3.

So the next three terms of the sequence are:

-72 * -3 = 216

216 * -3 = -648

-648 * -3 = 1944
