Example Questions
Example Question #11 : Patterns And Sequences
What property of arithmetic is symbolized below?
If 
Inverse
Commutative
Transitive
Associative
Transitive
The symbols express the idea that if a number is greater than a second number, which is greater than a third, then the first number is greater than the third. This is the transitive property of inequality.
Example Question #12 : Patterns And Sequences
What is the next number in the series?
The series follows the pattern
Plug in the last number given:
Example Question #563 : Numbers And Operations
What number comes next in the sequence?
The numbers can be seen as increasing by four per term since:
This means the term after three is four more than three.
The answer is:
Example Question #564 : Numbers And Operations
Give the next number in the sequence:
Each term of the sequence is found by adding a number to the previous one; the number added is incremented by 2 each time, as seen below:
The next term, which is the missing term, is obtained by adding 12 to 26:
the correct choice.
Example Question #174 : Numbers
What is the next number in the following sequence?
Understanding this sequence takes a quick eye, so to speak. Notice this interesting fact. You can rewrite the sequence as follows:
That is a rather simple sequence if you think of it. The best clue to help you see it will likely be the transition between 
Example Question #181 : Numbers
What is the next number in the following sequence?
Begin by considering how much the numbers change between each set of values. The following places the change in brackets:
You can guess that the next change will be by 
Example Question #182 : Numbers
Fill in the missing value in the following sequence:
Cannot be determined based on the information provided
Start by filling in the changes that happen from number to number in the sequence. This is done below in brackets:
Now, you know that
Thus, you know that the sequence will continue after 
Example Question #181 : Numbers
What number belongs in the question mark?
Notice that the numbers are increasing by 6 every time.
Add 6 to the end of the last number to obtain the number in the question mark.
The answer is:
Example Question #2042 : Ged Math
If the first and second terms of an arithmetic sequence are 
Recall that in an arithmetic sequence, the difference between terms is constant. From the given first and second terms, we see that the sequence is increasing by 
Example Question #12 : Patterns And Sequences
Give the next number in the sequence:
To generate the sequence, begin with 4, then alternately multiply by 3 and add 2:
The next entry:
the correct choice.
