Any number that you choose can be the nth number. It is easy to find a rule based on a polynomial of order 5 such that the first five numbers are as listed in the question, and the nth is the number of your choice. There are also non-polynomial solutions. Short of reading the mind of the person who posed the question, there is no way of determining which of the infinitely many solutions is the "correct" one.
The simplest rule, based on a polynomial of order 4 is
t(n) = (169*n^4 - 1950*n^3 + 7799*n^2 - 12402*n - 6792)/24 for n = 1, 2, 3, ...

What is the nth term of 6121824..?
If you mean: 6 12 18 24 then the nth term is 6n
What is the nth term for 18 12 6 0 -6?
The nth term of that series is (24 - 6n).
What is the nth term of -8 2 12 22?
The sequence has a difference of 10, so the nth term starts with 10n. Then to get to -8 from 10 you need to subtract 18. So the nth term is 10n - 18.
What is the nth term of 15 12 9 6.?
The nth term is 18 -3n and so the next term will be 3
What is the nth term of the sequence 18 12 6 0 -6?
24 - 6n
What is the pattern of 12 15 18 and 12 24 36?
For {12, 15, 18} each term is the previous term plus 3; a general formula for the nth term is given by t(n) = 3n + 9. For {12, 24, 36} each term is the previous term plus 12; a general formula for the nth term is given by t(n) = 12n.
What is the value of the nth term in the following arithmetic sequence 12 6 0 -6 ...?
18 - 6n
What is the nth term for 6 11 18 27 38?
The nth term of the sequence is (n + 1)2 + 2.
What is the nth term for 26 18 10 2 -6?
The nth term in this arithmetic sequence is an=26+(n-1)(-8).
What is the nth term of 3 8 13 18 23?
Un = 5n - 2
What is the nth term of 3 6 11 18 27?
The nth term is: n^2 +2 and so the next number will be 38
What is the nth term of 36 18 9 4.5?
