Solve the number pattern:

8, 12, 18, 27

Asked by wendylnielson

Answer (2)

Each number is 1.5 times the previous one.
8 x 1.5 = 12
12 x 1.5 = 18
18 x 1.5 = 27
The next number after 27 is (1.5 x 27) = 40.5

The pattern consists of increments where each increase becomes larger. The next number after 27 in the sequence is 39. This pattern follows an increasing addition of 4, 6, 9, leading to adding 12 next.
