Worked solution

Check the ratio between consecutive terms: if it's constant, multiply the last term by it. The correct answer is 128. Traps to avoid: 256 comes from the "squared ratio" error; 64 comes from the "forgot to grow" error; 192 comes from the "off ratio" error; 96 comes from the "arithmetic not geometric" error.
