Question
9, 16, 25, 36, … Find the next two numbers in the pattern: 9, 16, 25, 36, Describe the method you used to find the next two numbers.
Solution
The pattern in this sequence is that each number is a perfect square.
- The first number, 9, is 3^2 (3 squared).
- The second number, 16, is 4^2 (4 squared).
- The third number, 25, is 5^2 (5 squared).
- The fourth number, 36, is 6^2 (6 squared).
Following this pattern, the next number would be 7^2 (7 squared), which is 49. The number after that would be 8^2 (8 squared), which is 64.
So, the next two numbers in the pattern are 49 and 64.
