Step-by-step solution for: Grade 2 Pattern Worksheets | Free Printables | Math Worksheets
To solve the problem, we need to identify the pattern in each sequence and fill in the missing numbers accordingly. Let's analyze each sequence step by step.
---
```
2, 4, 6, _, _, 10, _, 12
```
- The sequence starts with 2.
- The difference between consecutive numbers is 2:
- \(4 - 2 = 2\)
- \(6 - 4 = 2\)
- Following this pattern:
- The next number after 6 is \(6 + 2 = 8\).
- The next number after 8 is \(8 + 2 = 10\) (already given).
- The next number after 10 is \(10 + 2 = 12\) (already given).
So, the completed sequence is:
```
2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12
```
---
```
3, 6, 9, 12, _, 18, _, 24
```
- The sequence starts with 3.
- The difference between consecutive numbers is 3:
- \(6 - 3 = 3\)
- \(9 - 6 = 3\)
- \(12 - 9 = 3\)
- Following this pattern:
- The next number after 12 is \(12 + 3 = 15\).
- The next number after 18 is \(18 + 3 = 21\).
So, the completed sequence is:
```
3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24
```
---
```
4, _, 12, _, 20, 24, _, 32
```
- The sequence starts with 4.
- Observing the given numbers, the difference between some terms is 8:
- \(20 - 12 = 8\)
- \(24 - 20 = 4\) (not consistent, so let's check another pattern).
- Another observation: Each term seems to be a multiple of 4:
- \(4 \times 1 = 4\)
- \(4 \times 3 = 12\)
- \(4 \times 5 = 20\)
- \(4 \times 6 = 24\)
- \(4 \times 8 = 32\)
- Following this pattern:
- The missing term before 12 is \(4 \times 2 = 8\).
- The missing term after 12 is \(4 \times 4 = 16\).
- The missing term after 24 is \(4 \times 7 = 28\).
So, the completed sequence is:
```
4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32
```
---
```
5, 10, _, 20, _, 30, 35, _
```
- The sequence starts with 5.
- Observing the given numbers, the difference between some terms is 5:
- \(10 - 5 = 5\)
- \(20 - 10 = 10\) (not consistent, so let's check another pattern).
- Another observation: Each term seems to increase by multiples of 5:
- \(5 \times 1 = 5\)
- \(5 \times 2 = 10\)
- \(5 \times 4 = 20\)
- \(5 \times 6 = 30\)
- \(5 \times 7 = 35\)
- Following this pattern:
- The missing term after 10 is \(5 \times 3 = 15\).
- The missing term after 20 is \(5 \times 5 = 25\).
- The missing term after 35 is \(5 \times 8 = 40\).
So, the completed sequence is:
```
5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40
```
---
```
_, _, 18, 24, 30, _, 42, 48
```
- The sequence starts with two missing numbers.
- Observing the given numbers, the difference between consecutive terms is 6:
- \(24 - 18 = 6\)
- \(30 - 24 = 6\)
- \(42 - 30 = 12\) (not consistent, but let's check the overall pattern).
- Another observation: Each term seems to increase by 6:
- The term before 18 must be \(18 - 6 = 12\).
- The term before 12 must be \(12 - 6 = 6\).
- The missing term after 30 is \(30 + 6 = 36\).
So, the completed sequence is:
```
6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48
```
---
```
1. 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12
2. 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24
3. 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32
4. 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40
5. 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48
```
\boxed{
\begin{aligned}
&1. 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 \\
&2. 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24 \\
&3. 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32 \\
&4. 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40 \\
&5. 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48
\end{aligned}

Sequence 1:
```
2, 4, 6, _, _, 10, _, 12
```
- The sequence starts with 2.
- The difference between consecutive numbers is 2:
- \(4 - 2 = 2\)
- \(6 - 4 = 2\)
- Following this pattern:
- The next number after 6 is \(6 + 2 = 8\).
- The next number after 8 is \(8 + 2 = 10\) (already given).
- The next number after 10 is \(10 + 2 = 12\) (already given).
So, the completed sequence is:
```
2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12

```
- The sequence starts with 5.
- Observing the given numbers, the difference between some terms is 5:
- \(10 - 5 = 5\)

- Observing the given numbers, the difference between consecutive terms is 6:
- \(24 - 18 = 6\)
- \(30 - 24 = 6\)
- \(42 - 30 = 12\) (not consistent, but let's check the overall pattern).
- Another observation: Each term seems to increase by 6:
