Let's solve the problem step by step.
The task is to
identify the next three numbers in each sequence, where each sequence increases by
2 (counting in twos).
---
🔹 Pattern 1:
6 → 8 → 10 → ___ → ___ → ___
- The pattern increases by 2.
- After 10:
- 10 + 2 =
12
- 12 + 2 =
14
- 14 + 2 =
16
✔ Next three numbers:
12, 14, 16
---
🔹 Pattern 2:
3 → 5 → 7 → ___ → ___ → ___
- Increases by 2.
- After 7:
- 7 + 2 =
9
- 9 + 2 =
11
- 11 + 2 =
13
✔ Next three numbers:
9, 11, 13
---
🔹 Pattern 3:
10 → 12 → 14 → ___ → ___ → ___
- Increases by 2.
- After 14:
- 14 + 2 =
16
- 16 + 2 =
18
- 18 + 2 =
20
✔ Next three numbers:
16, 18, 20
---
🔹 Pattern 4:
7 → 9 → 11 → ___ → ___ → ___
- Increases by 2.
- After 11:
- 11 + 2 =
13
- 13 + 2 =
15
- 15 + 2 =
17
✔ Next three numbers:
13, 15, 17
---
🔹 Pattern 5:
20 → 22 → 24 → ___ → ___ → ___
- Increases by 2.
- After 24:
- 24 + 2 =
26
- 26 + 2 =
28
- 28 + 2 =
30
✔ Next three numbers:
26, 28, 30
---
✔ Final Answers:
1.
12, 14, 16
2.
9, 11, 13
3.
16, 18, 20
4.
13, 15, 17
5.
26, 28, 30
All sequences follow the rule:
add 2 each time. This is called "counting in twos".
