12It follows the pattern of subtract 4; divide by 3; multiply by 2.
The pattern is "Subtract 4, Divide by 3, Multiply by 2", repeat46 - 4 = 4242 / 3 = 1414 * 2 = 2828 - 4 = 2424 / 3 = 88 * 2 = 16Thus the next number is 16 - 4 = 12
4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, etc. Keep adding 4 to the last number to get the next number.
Each number is half the previous number.
Set up the equation and solve: 15x - 8 - 3x = 16 (next add 8 to each side) 15x - 3x - 16 + 8 (next simplify) 12x = 24 (next divide both side by 12 to solve for x) x = 2
