what wil be the next number pattern

1, 2, 4, 8, 16, ?

Thanks!

Each number is 2 times the previous number.

What is 2 times 16?

its a trick question

32,64,128,256,515,1024,2048,4096,8192,16384....

Just keep doubling the last number

32

To determine the next number in a pattern, it is helpful to look for a consistent rule or relationship between the given numbers. In this case, we can observe that each number is double the previous number.

Starting with the number 1, we double it to obtain 2. Then, we double 2 to get 4. Continuing this pattern, we double 4 to get 8, and double 8 to get 16.

Therefore, the next number in the pattern would be obtained by doubling 16, resulting in 32.

So, the next number in the given pattern would be 32.
