48 24 96 48 192 ?
48 = 24 * 2
96 = 48 * 2
Then mark 48.
96 = 48 * 2.
192 = 96 * 2.
Next mark ?
192/2 = 96.

1st pattern 48,96,192
2nd pattern 24,48,?
48*2=96 24*2=48.
96*2=192. 48*2=96.
So the answer is 96.

48x2=96 ; 96x2=192.
24x2=48 ; 48x2=96.

So answer is 96 for alternate pattern.

48*1/2 = 24.
24*4 = 96.
96*1/2 = 48.
48*4 = 192.
192*1/2 = 96.

Consider (48,24,96)and(48,192,?)as 2 series..

In both 1st term is same and also third is same.

Hence answer is 96.
