Example Question #2 : How To Find The Common Difference In Sequences
What is the next number in the sequence?
_______
In order to find the next number in the sequence, take a look at the patterns and common differences between the existing numbers in the sequence. Starting with , we add
to get
and then subtract
to get
.
By the time we get to , we have subtracted
from
to complete the cycle of common differences. We will therefore add
to
next, getting the missing number
.
Example Question #2 : Common Difference In Sequences
What is the next number in the sequence?
_______
In order to find the next number in the sequence, take a look at the patterns and common differences between the existing numbers in the sequence. Starting at the beginning, we multiply by
to get
and then divide by
to get
.
We multiply the second in the sequence by
to get
, so by the logic of the sequence we will be dividing by
to get the missing number
.
