Patterns and sequences

We often need to spot a pattern in order to
predict what will happen next.

In maths, the correct name for a pattern of
numbers is called a SEQUENCE.

The first number in a SEQUENCE is sometimes
called the FIRST TERM; the second is the
SECOND TERM and so on.

Patterns and sequences


For any pattern it is important to try to spot
what is happening before you can predict the
next number.

The first 2 or 3 numbers is rarely enough to
show the full pattern - 4 or 5 numbers are
best.
