Question: 1 / 400

What is the missing number in the following series? 2, 4, 8, 16, ... ?

20

32

The series presented follows a clear pattern where each number is multiplied by 2 to obtain the next number. Starting with 2, when you multiply by 2, you get 4. Multiplying 4 by 2 results in 8, and multiplying 8 by 2 gives you 16. Continuing this pattern, taking 16 and multiplying it by 2 leads to 32. Therefore, 32 is the next number in the series and correctly completes the pattern.

The other choices do not fit the established multiplication pattern in the series, as they do not result from multiplying the preceding number by 2. This reinforces why 32 is the only logical continuation of the series based on the identified rule.
