Solution

The correct option is C 512
The given sequence is 2, 8, 32, 128…

Let us divide each term in the sequence by the term preceding it:

$8 \div 2 = 4$

$32 \div 8 = 4$

$128 \div 32 = 4$

We observe that each term in the above sequence is 4 times the previous term.

The next term in the geometric sequence = $4 \times 128 = 512$
