What completes the pattern?
What completes the pattern?
The pattern involves adding consecutive numbers in a row, then dividing by -2 to get the next number. For example, in the first row, (-4 + -6) / -2 = 5, (-6 + -9)/-2 = 7.5, (-9 + -6) / -2 = 7.5. Applying this pattern to the second row, the missing number is (7+4) / -2 = -5.5
Study Notes
- A number pattern needs to be completed.
- There is a single algebraic equation that is consistent across all rows.
- Only addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division can be used.
