The answer is you divide the number that is given and then once you got the number you multiple.

====================

OK. Try it that way if you want to. Here's another way that might work:

-- Look at the first two numbers. Think of a rule that could take you from the first one

to the second one. There are many possible rules. Pick one. It doesn't matter at all

which one you pick.

-- Now look at the 2nd and 3rd numbers. See if the rule you picked could get you

from the 2nd one to the 3rd one.

-- If it does, then you're probably done. You could check it again with the 3rd and 4th

numbers in the sequence just to make sure, but chances are you've got it.

-- If the rule you picked doesn't get you from the 2nd number to the 3rd one, then

go back to the first two numbers.

Pick a different rule that could get you from the first number to the second one,

and go back around the loop again.

Keep trying new rules that work from the first to the second, until you find a rule

that works from the 2nd to the 3rd, from the 3rd to the 4th, and farther.

If it works for others, then it's the correct rule.
