    Step-by-step explanation:

    12 - 5 = 7

    26 - 12 = 14

    54 - 26 = 28

    The next number in this sequence is twice the difference between the previous two numbers in the sequence.

    Therefore the next number should have a difference of

    2

    *

    28

    or

    56

    . We can therefore determine the next number by adding

    56

    to

    54

    to get

    110

    110 - 54 = 56

    Therefore the next number in the sequence will have a difference of

    2

    *

    56

    or

    112

    .

    110

    +

    112

    is

    222

    222 - 110 = 112

    Therefore the next number in the sequence will have a difference of

    2

    *

    112

    or

    224

    .

    222

    +

    224

    is

    446
