Understanding the Pattern

The pattern involves a single algebraic equation using basic arithmetic operations which repeats across all rows.

What's the solution?

For each row, the formula is (number1 - number2) + number3 = number4. For the last row, (1 - 3) + 5 = 3.

Study Notes

  • An algebraic equation using addition, subtraction, multiplication, or division completes a pattern across all rows
  • The numbers in the pattern are:
    • 9, 1, 6, 4
    • 4, 5, 7, 2
    • 5, 8, 8, 5
    • 1, 3, 5, ?
  • The goals to find the number that completes the pattern
