Question

Continue the pattern 10,6, 18, 14, 26, 22, 34

Answer 1

Continuing the pattern we get: 10, 6, 18, 14, 26, 22, 34, 30, 42, 38

Solution:

The given pattern is: 10, 6, 18, 14, 26, 22, 34

Let us first analyse the pattern and find out the logic

The logic used is:

10 - 4 = 6

6 + 12 = 18

18 - 4 = 14

14 + 12 = 26

26 - 4 = 22

22 + 12 = 34

34 - 4 = 30

30 + 12 = 42

42 - 4 = 38

Thus we can see clearly that alternatively "-4" and "+12" are being added to previous terms to find the next term in given pattern

The pattern goes like this:

10, 6, 18, 14, 26, 22, 34, 30, 42, 38
