The pattern of the spread of the virus will be 1,2,4,8 identify the next three numbers in this pattern

16 32 64

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

Though it is easy just to add the next three numbers, it would be a good idea to develop some sort of formula. It is what you always want to do if you are representing a sequence. Then you don't have to struggle to find the 100 term of the given sequence. The only way to explain this is to say it is a geometric sequence.
