The numbers are palindromes, which represent numbers that read the same forwards and
backwards.
What is the next palindrome?
1, 121, 12321, ___
Question 2
In the number pattern below,
2 3 6 8 2 3 6 8 2 3 6 8 ...,
what is the 18th number?
Question 3
Question 4
Question 5
Question 6
Study the number pattern below.
13, 14, 15, 16, 13, 14, 15, 16, 13, 14, 15, 16, ...,
What is the 34th number?
Question 7
In the number pattern below,
2 3 6 8 2 3 6 8 2 3 6 8 ...,
what is the sum of the first 16 numbers?
Question 8
In the number pattern below, find the missing number
2 1 8 9 4 3 ___ 7
Question 9
Question 10
Answers and Solutions
Question 1
Answer:
1234321
Solution:
The digits at the centre of the palindromes always increase by 1.
1 → 2 → 3
So the digit at the centre of the next palindrome will be 4.
The answer is 1234321.
Question 2
Answer:
3
Solution:
The pattern repeats after every four numbers.
2 3 6 8
18 ÷ 4 = 4 R 2
Remainder is 2 → number at the 2nd position of the repeating pattern, which is 3.
Thus, the 18th number is 3.
Question 3
Answer:
72
Solution:
Question 4
Answer:
116
Solution:
Question 5
Answer:
53
Solution:
Question 6
Answer:
14
Solution:
The pattern repeats every four numbers (13, 14, 15, 16).
34 ÷ 4 = 8 R 2
For remainder 2, it means the number will be at the second position in the repeating
pattern.
So the answer is 14.
Question 7
Answer:
76
Solution:
The pattern repeats after every four numbers.
2 3 6 8
16 ÷ 4 = 4
There are 4 sets of four numbers in the first 16 numbers.
2 + 3 + 6 + 8 = 19
19 x 4 = 76
The sum of the first 16 numbers is 76.
Question 8
Answer:
6
Solution:
Study the numbers in pair.
2 and 1 → 2 is one more than 1.
8 and 9 → 8 is one less than 9.
4 and 3 → 4 is one more than 3.
So the unknown number should be one less than 7, which is 6.
There is another pattern. Study the number pairs that have one number in between.
2 and 8 → the sum is 10.
1 and 9 → the sum is 10.
3 and 7 → the sum is 10.
So the unknown number and 4 should make 10.
The unknown number is 6.
Question 9
Answer:
