The pattern is *2 +3 *2 +3 *2 +3 .... 1 *2 = 2 , 2+3 = 5 , 5 *2 = 10, 10 +3 = 13, 13*2 = ?...
Answer: 0.7
Locate the tenths place which is just to the right of the decimal point. We see a 6 in this spot. Just to the right of this 6 is the value 8. Since 8 is larger than 5, we bump the 6 up to 7 and erase everything else to the right. You can think of it like this
0.687 ---> 0.6 which bumps up to 0.7
This is like saying 687 is closer to 700 than it is to 600
5+9=14 in numerical expression
