Full solution

Q. Type the missing numbers in this sequence:\newline4545, _____, 5959, 6666, _____, 8080
  1. 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 5959 and 6666.\newlineCalculation: 6659=766 - 59 = 7.\newlineSo, the difference might be 77, but we need to check the rest of the sequence to be sure.
  2. Calculate Difference: 665966 - 59: Now let's check if the difference of 77 works for the next pair, which is 8080 and the missing number before it.\newlineCalculation: 807=7380 - 7 = 73.\newlineSo, the missing number before 8080 should be 7373 if the pattern is consistent.
  3. Check Next Pair: 80780 - 7: Let's apply the same difference of 77 to find the missing number between 4545 and 5959.\newlineCalculation: 597=5259 - 7 = 52.\newlineSo, the missing number after 4545 should be 5252 if we're adding 77 each time.
  4. Apply Difference: 59759 - 7: Now let's double-check the sequence with our filled in numbers to make sure the pattern of adding 77 holds true.\newlineCheck: 45,52,59,66,73,8045, 52, 59, 66, 73, 80.\newlineEach number increases by 77, so the pattern is consistent.
