Answer

  1. Calculate the difference between consecutive given terms

    7-4 = 3 \\ 11-7=4\\ 16-11=5

    We can find the series of the differences is an arithmetic sequence with a common difference 1. So the difference between the last given term and its next term is 6.

    The next term is 22. C is the choice.
