Finding Number Patterns

The video tutorial introduces the concept of patterns, both in nature and numbers. It explains basic number patterns with simple rules like addition and subtraction. The tutorial progresses to more complex patterns, emphasizing the importance of identifying the rule governing the sequence. It also covers increasing and decreasing patterns and challenges viewers to find missing numbers in sequences, reinforcing the learning of pattern rules.

What is a pattern in the context of mathematics?

• A random sequence of numbers

• A sequence of numbers that follows a specific rule

• A collection of unrelated numbers

• A single number repeated multiple times

If a number pattern starts with 1 and follows the rule +1, what is the fourth number in the sequence?

• 5

• 4

• 2

• 3

In a pattern where each number is increased by 2, what comes after 10?

• 14

• 13

• 12

• 11

What is the rule for the pattern: 9, 6, 3?

• -2

• -3

• +3

• +2

If a pattern decreases by 4 each time, what number follows 26?

• 20

• 22

• 24

• 18

In a sequence where the rule is +5, what number comes after 79?

• 84

• 82

• 86

• 88

If a sequence follows the rule -7, what number comes after 20?

• 13

• 16

• 15

• 14
