This is wrong. It should be
16 should be replaced by 10
2+2=4, 4x2=8, 8+2=10, 10x2=20, 20+2=22, 22x2=44, 44+2=46
This is the series of square numbers, (16= 4*4). The next number is 5*5=25.
The next number is 25 but there are the sequence is infinite so there can be no end to the sequence.
It is 24 and it should be 25 as a square number
The Pattern is 1^2- 2^2- 3^2- 4^2- 5^2 or 1 - 4 - 9 - 16 - 25 The next number in the series is 6^2 or 36

Oh, what a happy little sequence we have here! It looks like we're doubling every other number. So, after 16, the next number would be 16 doubled, which is 32. Just like painting a beautiful landscape, sometimes patterns can be found in the most unexpected places.
The series appears to increase as follows: 1 (+3), 4 (+5), 9 (+7), 16,, etc. If so, the next number in the series would be 25 (16 + 9). * * * * * While mathematically equivalent, a simpler description is: 12, 22, 32, 42, 52 ...

16 should be replaced by 10 1x2=2, 2+2=4, 4x2=8, 8+2=10, 10x2=20, 20+2=22, 22x2=44, 44+2=46 it would continue: 92, 94, 188, 190, 380, 382...
The series is decreasing by consecutive perfect squares starting from 16^2 (256) and decreasing by 2^2 each time. Therefore, the next number in the series would be 4^2, which is 16.
