Answer: What Comes Next? #414

The answer is C: 104.

The finished pattern: 32, 44, 56, 68, 80, 92, 104.
The finished pattern.

The rule

Add 12 each time.

The pattern as Python code

Here is a tiny Python program that follows the same rule. Type it into IDLE and run it to print the whole pattern, including the answer.

number = 32
for step in range(7):
    print(number)
    number = number + 12

When you run it, Python prints:

32
44
56
68
80
92
104

Pixel says: Try changing a number in the code and run it again. Can you make the pattern go on for 20 steps? Meow!
