Q. Type the missing numbers in this sequence:45, _____, 59, 66, _____, 80
Find Pattern: Look at the sequence to find the pattern; it seems like each number is increasing by a certain amount. Let's find the difference between 59 and 66.Calculation: 66−59=7.So, the difference might be 7, but we need to check the rest of the sequence to be sure.
Calculate Difference: 66−59: Now let's check if the difference of 7 works for the next pair, which is 80 and the missing number before it.Calculation: 80−7=73.So, the missing number before 80 should be 73 if the pattern is consistent.
Check Next Pair: 80−7: Let's apply the same difference of 7 to find the missing number between 45 and 59.Calculation: 59−7=52.So, the missing number after 45 should be 52 if we're adding 7 each time.
Apply Difference: 59−7: Now let's double-check the sequence with our filled in numbers to make sure the pattern of adding 7 holds true.Check: 45,52,59,66,73,80.Each number increases by 7, so the pattern is consistent.
