Maths

For maths today, you will be finding patterns in addition and subtraction. You will be give some numbers in a sequence and you will have to identify the addition or subtraction pattern in the sequence.

For example:

2, 4, 6, 8, would be +2

1, 3, 5, 7, would also be +2

The missing number in this sequence 3, 6, _, 12 would be 9 as the pattern in +3

The missing number in this sequence 12, 8, _, 0 would be 4 as the pattern in -4

There are two tasks attached, both are differentiated so choose the level you think is suitable for your level.
