How to Complete the Sequence

The video tutorial guides students through solving a sequence problem. It begins by presenting a sequence of numbers and encourages students to attempt solving it independently. The teacher then explains how to analyze the sequence by identifying the pattern of changes between numbers. The sequence is increasing, and the pattern involves adding consecutive numbers. The teacher demonstrates the solution, showing that the next number in the sequence is 38. The tutorial emphasizes understanding the pattern and applying it to find the solution.

What is the first step you should take when trying to solve a sequence problem?

• Add all numbers together

• Look for a pattern in the changes between numbers

• Multiply all numbers together

• Guess the next number

Which of the following is NOT a method to identify a pattern in a sequence?

• Multiplying

• Subtracting

• Adding

• Squaring

What is the change from 3 to 8 in the sequence?

• Subtract 1

• Multiply by 2

• Add 5

• Add 4

What is the pattern identified in the sequence?

• Adding 5, 6, 7, 8

• Dividing by 2, 3, 4

• Multiplying by 2, 3, 4

• Subtracting 1, 2, 3

What is the next number in the sequence after 29?

• 39

• 38

• 36

• 37
