THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ALL CONSECUTIVE ODD NUMBERS IS THE MULTIPLE OF "6" AND THE NUMBERS IN THE EVEN PLACES IS THE DOUBLE OF THE ITS PRECEDING NUMER.
NUMBERS IN THE ODD PLACES ARE 14,20,32, SO DIFFERENCE BETWEEN 20 AND 14 IS 6,AND THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN 32 AND 20 IS 12 6 AND 12 ARE THE MULTIPLES OF 6 SO THE NEXT MULTIPLE OF 6 IS 18 SO 18 IS ADDED TO THE 32 IT IS 56 SO THE REQUIRED NO 56
