4+8=12.
8+8=16.
22,
12+8=20.
16+8=24.
22,
20+8=28.
So 22, 28 is right.
8+8=16.
22,
12+8=20.

4 8 22 12 16 22 20 24.
Solution is correct: i.e 22,28 they are asking the next pair so 22 is one of them for sure.
Now:
Solution is work like this:---
4, 8, 22, (8+4 = 12), (12+4= 16), 22, (16+4 = 20), (20+4= 24), 22, (24+4= 28).
I hope it helps.
Thank you!
