Number Pattern Grade 4

This document discusses number patterns, which are patterns or sequences in a series of numbers that establish a common relationship between all numbers. It provides examples of number patterns with a constant difference between terms and patterns involving dots. It also notes that number patterns can ascend, descend, be multiples of a number, or consist of only even or odd numbers.

Number Pattern

Number pattern is a pattern or sequence in a series of numbers.


This pattern generally establishes a common relationship between
all numbers.

For example:

0, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, ...


We get the numbers in the pattern by skip counting by 5. Given
are the steps to identify a number pattern.

To solve the problems of number pattern, we need first to find


the rule being followed in the pattern.

To find out the rule, we need to see the first few numbers in the
series.

Try to see the difference between consecutive numbers, it will


help us understand the relationship between the numbers.

Example 1:

· 11, 17, 23, 29, 35, 41, 47, 53


In this pattern, we see that every term in the sequence has grown
or increased by 6 or the difference between any two consecutive
numbers is 6. So, we can get the next term by adding 6 to the
previous term.

Example 2:

· 18, 15, 12, 9, 6, 3

In this number pattern, we can see that every term in the


sequence has reduced by 3 or 3 has been subtracted from every
number compared to its previous one. So, we can subtract 3 from
the previous term to get the next term.

In the above two examples, the number pattern is formed by a


common difference in all its terms.

Patterns with dots


Some problems for the pattern can also involve a pattern of dots,
where we need to find out the number and position of the dots in
the pattern.

Fun Fact:
Number patterns are not restricted to a few types. They could
be ascending, descending, multiples of a certain number, or series
of even numbers, odd numbers etc.
