Question 359353
<pre>

I'm not sure what you are looking for.  Maybe it's this:

8 = 4×2 = 2×2×2 = 2<sup>3</sup>

24 = 4×6 = 2×2×2×3 = 2<sup>3</sup>×3<sup>1</sup>

72 = 8×9 = 4×2×3×3 = 2×2×2×3×3 = 2<sup>3</sup>×3<sup>2</sup>

216 = 2×108 = 2×2×54 = 2×2×2×27 = 2×2×2×3×9 = 2×2×2×3×3×3 = 2<sup>3</sup>×3<sup>3</sup>

If not then maybe it's this:

8, 24, 72, 216

since we multiply by 3 each time to get the next term of the sequence:

a<sub>n</sub> = 8×3<sup>n-1</sup>

If neither of these is what you want, then post again, copying every
word in the instructions so we will know what you are looking for.
