This is a 4 step sequence , starting with the number 1.
1) Double the number
2) Add 2
3) Subtract 1
4) Return to step 1) and repeat.
1 x 2 = 2 ; 2 + 2 = 4 ; 4 - 1 = 3 ; ..........7 x 2 = 14 ; 14 + 2 = 16.
Then the next number is generated by Step 3).. 16 - 1 = 15
The next numbers in the sequence are... 16, then 88.
15
92 - 18 = 72 72 - 16 = 56 56 - 14 = 42 42 - 12 = 30 30 - 10 = 20 20 is the next number in the sequence.
16 is the next squared number.
The next number in the sequence is... 64
A single number, such as 4642142824816 does not constitute a sequence.
The next numbers in the sequence are... 16, then 88.

17?
From the given sequence, the pattern appears to be 47-42=4, 42/3=14, 14*2=28, 28-4=24, 24/3=8, 8*2=16 and therefore the next number will be 16-4=12.
15
The next number in the sequence is 15 - the sequence goes x2, +2, -1
15
92 - 18 = 72 72 - 16 = 56 56 - 14 = 42 42 - 12 = 30 30 - 10 = 20 20 is the next number in the sequence.
16 is the next squared number.
The next number in the sequence 2, 4, 16, 64 is 256.
are you sure it is not1 2 3 6 8 7 14 16because that sequence doubles for the first one, then adds two for the next number, then subtracts one for the third, then repeats. So the next number is 15.
