You could be asking two different things, but most likely the first.


"What is the next number in the sequence 972, 324, 108?"


To determine the next number in a sequence you need to define the rule of the sequence first. The rule is the relationship between two of the terms. Let's compare the terms.


972:324=3:1

324:108=3:1


972 is three times the value of 324. 324 is three times the value of 108. This means that each number is one-third the size of the previous number. Label the next number X.


X=108/3

X=36


The sequence is 972, 324, 108, 36.




"What is the next number in the sequence 972324108?"


In math, a sequence is a list of numbers in a special order. Multiple numbers are needed to created a sequence. 972324108 is only one number and therefore is not a sequence.

If you are asking what number comes after 972324108, 972324109 comes after it.

A single number, such as 972324108, does not define a sequence.
