- First, look closely: The image is a worksheet titled "Patterns" with the instruction to "Copy each figure in the empty box." It displays a grid of 4 rows and 4 columns. Each row contains three filled boxes with black-and-white dot patterns and one empty box at the end. The task is to identify the pattern within each row and replicate the next figure in the sequence into the empty box.
- Next, find information: I need to analyze the pattern in each row to determine what the next figure should be. I will examine each row individually.
- Then, review the findings: I have analyzed all four rows. Here are the patterns and the required solutions for each empty box:
1.
Row 1: The pattern involves adding one black dot to the top row of the 3x3 grid in each subsequent box. The first box has 2 black dots, the second has 3, and the third has 4. Therefore, the fourth box should have 5 black dots in the top row.
2.
Row 2: The pattern involves adding one black dot to the bottom row of the 3x3 grid in each subsequent box. The first box has 1 black dot, the second has 2, and the third has 3. Therefore, the fourth box should have 4 black dots in the bottom row.
3.
Row 3: The pattern involves adding one black dot to the middle row of the 3x3 grid in each subsequent box. The first box has 1 black dot, the second has 2, and the third has 3. Therefore, the fourth box should have 4 black dots in the middle row.
4.
Row 4: The pattern involves adding one black dot to the right column of the 3x3 grid in each subsequent box. The first box has 1 black dot, the second has 2, and the third has 3. Therefore, the fourth box should have 4 black dots in the right column.
The solution is to draw these specific patterns in the corresponding empty boxes.
