What numbers should replace the question marks in the sequence?
Correct answer: 6, 4
Explanation:
The sequence is 130, 66, 34, 18, 10, ?, ?.
Look at the differences between the numbers:
130 - 66 = 64
66 - 34 = 32
34 - 18 = 16
18 - 10 = 8
The differences are powers of two:
64 = 2⁶
32 = 2⁵
16 = 2⁴
8 = 2³
So the next powers of two are:
4 = 2²
2 = 2¹
Continue the sequence:
10 - 4 = 6
6 - 2 = 4
Therefore, the missing numbers are 6 and 4.
