Another way.
22, interpolated as every third number.
So,
4+4 = 8.
8+4 = 12.
12+4 = 16.
16+4 = 20.
20+4 = 24.
24+4 = 28.
So answer is 28.
22, interpolated as every third number.
So,
4+4 = 8.
8+4 = 12.
12+4 = 16.
16+4 = 20.
20+4 = 24.
24+4 = 28.
So answer is 28.

Answer,
4+0 = 4.
4+4 = 8.
(22).
8+4 = 12.
12+4 = 16.
(22).
16+4 = 20.
20+4 = 24.
Then first 22.
24+4 = 28 The answer is 22&28.
28+4 = 32.
(22) so on...
4+0 = 4.
4+4 = 8.
(22).
8+4 = 12.
12+4 = 16.
(22).
16+4 = 20.
20+4 = 24.
Then first 22.
24+4 = 28 The answer is 22&28.
28+4 = 32.
(22) so on...

4*2 = 8.
4*3 = 12.
4*4 = 16.
4*5 = 20.
4*6 = 24.
4*7 = 28.
4*8 = 32 So answer is 28&32.
4*3 = 12.
4*4 = 16.
4*5 = 20.
4*6 = 24.
4*7 = 28.
4*8 = 32 So answer is 28&32.
