Explanation:
Let’s go through each question one by one and solve them carefully.
1.
1, 5, 9, 13, ___, ___, ___
Look at the pattern:
5 − 1 = 4
9 − 5 = 4
13 − 9 = 4
So it’s adding 4 each time.
Next: 13 + 4 =
17
Then: 17 + 4 =
21
Then: 21 + 4 =
25
2.
10 − 4 · 2 =
Remember order of operations: multiplication before subtraction.
4 · 2 = 8
Then 10 − 8 =
2
3.
18 / 3 =
18 ÷ 3 =
6
4.
84 ÷ 1 =
Any number divided by 1 is itself. So 84 ÷ 1 =
84
5.
Does Ellen spend more time on homework or sports?
Look at the pie chart:
- “homework” slice looks smaller than “sports” slice.
Visually, “sports” is larger than “homework”.
So answer:
sports
6.
4 · 3 + 5 · 1 =
Do multiplications first:
4 · 3 = 12
5 · 1 = 5
Then add: 12 + 5 =
17
Now for questions 7–10, use:
a = 2, b = 3, c = 6
7.
a + b =
2 + 3 =
5
8.
ac =
a × c = 2 × 6 =
12
9.
c / a =
6 ÷ 2 =
3
10.
2b =
2 × b = 2 × 3 =
6
Let me double-check all answers:
1. 17, 21, 25
✔
2. 2
✔
3. 6
