Problem Solving with Patterns
Look For Number Patterns
to help solve math problems.
Example #1:
What
would you place in the
box
to finish the pattern?
|
2 |
4 |
6 |

|
10 |
You
should replace the
with an 8
to
finish the pattern,
because you are counting by 2s.
2 more after 6 is
8.
Example #2:
What
would you place in the
box
to finish the pattern?
|
5 |

|
15 |
20 |
25 |
30 |
You
should replace the
with a 10
to finish the pattern,
because you are counting by 5s.
5 more after 5 is
10.
Example #3:
What
would you place in the
box
to finish the pattern?
|
3 |
6 |
4 |
7 |
5 |

|
6 |
9 |
You
should replace the
with an 8
to finish the pattern,
because you are
adding by 3 then subtracting by 2.
In the pattern, 3 added to 5 would be
8.
