To find the fourth term in the sequence 2, 4, 8, we need to identify the pattern in the numbers. The sequence appears to be based on multiplication by a factor of 2.

- The first term is 2.

- The second term is 2 multiplied by 2, giving us 4.

- The third term is 4 multiplied by 2, resulting in 8.

Continuing this pattern, to find the fourth term, we multiply the third term (8) by 2:

8 × 2 = 16.

Thus, the fourth term of the sequence is 16. Therefore, when considering the provided choices, 16 accurately follows the derived pattern of multiplying each term by 2.
