Pattern & symmetry

To extend a pattern you keep adding the same amount each time. This amount is called the...?

1. Atotal
2. Bconstant
3. Chalf

Pattern: 2, 4, 6, ... What is the next number?

Pattern: 3, 6, 9, ... What is the next number?

A pattern of triangles grows 2, 4, 6. How many triangles are added each time?

The numbers 2, 4, 6, 8 are all...?

1. Aodd numbers
2. Bmultiples of 2
3. Cmultiples of 5

Pattern: 3, 6, 9, 12, ... What is the next number?

Start with 3 circles and add 3 each time: 3, 6, 9, ... What comes after 9?

In the pattern 3, 6, 9, 12 the constant is...?

1. A2
2. B3
3. C6

Start with 2 squares and add 2 each time. After 2, 4, 6, what comes next?

In the pattern 2, 4, 6, 8 the constant is...?

1. A1
2. B2
