In a geometric sequence, we multiply an element, by a factor r to get the next element. From the terms of the sequence, we see that the first number is 2, the second is 2⋅3, and the third is 2⋅32. The factor to multiply by then is 3. Thus, in order to get the next number, we multiply 2⋅32 by 3. 2⋅32⋅3=2⋅33.
