Then, we add 8 to get 340, divide by 2 to get 170, add 6 to get 176, divide by 2 to get 88, and finally add 1 to get 89. Following the same pattern, the next number should be obtained by dividing 89 by 2 and adding 1, which gives us 45. Therefore, the correct answer is not available.Rate this question:

The pattern in the given sequence is that each number is obtained by adding 2 to the square of its position in the sequence. For example, the first number is 0 which is obtained by adding 2 to the square of 1 (1^2 + 2 = 0). The second number is 2 which is obtained by adding 2 to the square of 2 (2^2 + 2 = 2). Following this pattern, the missing number should be obtained by adding 2 to the square of its position, which is 5. Therefore, the missing number is 24 (5^2 + 2 = 24).Rate this question:
