The correct answer is 96. The first step is figuring out the pattern in the series, which is that each number is doubled to create the next number.
Since you are asked to give the sixth number, you need to determine the fifth number first:
First, double 24: 2 × 24 = 48 This is the fifth number.
Now, you'll need to double 48 to get the answer: 2 × 48 = 96
This is the sixth number.
