Answer:
32
Step-by-step explanation:
Obviously, the numbers are decreasing. So, to find this number, we have to determine how much the sequence is declining by.
167 - 118 = 49.
118 - 82 = 36.
82 - 57 = 25.
57 - 41 = 16.
As we decrease, we're decreasing consecutively by square numbers (so, in other words, we're decreasing in 7 squared, 6 squared, 5 squared, 4 squared... )
So, we'll continue the pattern and subtract by 3 squared (9).
41 - 9 = 32.
