Question

Raul and Ivan each make a number pattern, as described.

Answer 1

Answer:

Option C. 23

Step-by-step explanation:

To know the correct answer to the question given above, let us determine the sequence of Raul and Ivan. This is illustrated below:

From the question given above,

Raul's pattern: start with 15, add 2

Ivan's pattern: start with 11, add 3

For Raul:

Raul's pattern: start with 15, add 2

1st term = 15

2nd term = 15 + 2 = 17

3rd term = 17 + 2 = 19

4th term = 19 + 2 = 21

5th term = 21 + 2 = 23

6th term = 23 + 2 = 25

For Ivan:

Ivan's pattern: start with 11, add 3

1st term = 11

2nd term = 11 + 3 = 14

3rd term = 14 + 3 = 17

4th term = 17 + 3 = 20

5th term = 20 + 3 = 23

6th term = 23 + 3 = 26

Summary

Term >>>>> Raul >>>>>> Ivan

1 >>>>>>>>> 15 >>>>>>>> 11

2 >>>>>>>>> 17 >>>>>>>> 14

3 >>>>>>>>> 19 >>>>>>>> 17

4 >>>>>>>>> 21 >>>>>>>> 20

5 >>>>>>>>> 23 >>>>>>>> 23

6 >>>>>>>>> 25 >>>>>>>> 26

From the calculations made above, we can see that in the 5th term, both Raul and Ivan has the same number as 23.
