1)  

 Type the missing numbers in this sequence:

36384042 Answer: 44


SOLUTION 1 :
First, look for a pattern. Notice how each number is 2 less than the previous number:
 
 36,    38,    40,    42,    __
 
 
To make the pattern complete, the numbers 44 must go in the blank spaces.


2)  

 Type the missing number in this sequence:

3, 6, 12, 24, Answer: 48


SOLUTION 1 :

First, look for a pattern. Notice how each number is 2 times the previous number: 

3,    6,    12,    24,    __



Multiply 24 by 2 to find the missing number:

24 × 2 = 48



To make the pattern complete, the number 48 must go in the blank space.



3)  

 Type the next number in this sequence:

0,    0,    2,    6,    12,   Answer: 20


SOLUTION 1 :

Find the pattern. Look at how much you add to each number to get the next number: 

0,0,2,6,12,
           
  + 0 + 2 + 4 + 6  



The amount you add increases by 2 each time. You should add 8 the next time. Add 8 to 12 to find the next number: 

0,0,2,6,12,20
           
  + 0 + 2 + 4 + 6 + 8



The next number is 20.



4)  

 Type the next number in this sequence:

2, 3, 6, 11, 18, 27, 38,





Answer: 2


 



SOLUTION 1 :

Find the pattern. Look at how much you add to each number to get the next number: 




2, 3, 6, 11, 18, 27, 38,
                     
    + 1   + 3   + 5   + 7   + 9   + 11    






The amount you add increases by 2 each time. You should add 13 the next time. Add 13 to 38 to find the next number: 




2, 3, 6, 11, 18, 27, 38, 51
                     
    + 1   + 3   + 5   + 7   + 9   + 11   + 13






The next number is 51. 



5)  

 Type the missing numbers in this sequence:

Answer: 5052545658 Answer: 60


SOLUTION 1 :
First, look for a pattern. Notice how each number is 2 less than the previous number:
 
__,    52,    54,    56,    58,    __
 
 
To make the pattern complete, the numbers 50 and 60 must go in the blank spaces.


6)  

 Type the missing numbers in this sequence:

48505254 Answer: 56


SOLUTION 1 :
First, look for a pattern. Notice how each number is 2 less than the previous number:

2, 4, 8, 16, Answer: 32


SOLUTION 1 :

First, look for a pattern. Notice how each number is 2 times the previous number: 

2,    4,    8,    16,    __



Multiply 16 by 2 to find the missing number:
