Question
The following numbers are in a sequence from left to right. Determine the pattern and decide which number should come next:Fill in the blank: 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, _____1 point
Solution
The pattern in this sequence is that each number is a perfect square. The first number is 2^2 (4), the second number is 3^2 (9), the third number is 4^2 (16), the fourth number is 5^2 (25), the fifth number is 6^2 (36), and the sixth number is 7^2 (49).
So, the next number in the sequence should be 8^2, which is 64.
