Question

Complete the pattern
5,10,30,60,180,__

Answer 1

270 because you can realize it starts going up by 30 so you had to multiply 3 × 30 to get 90 then add 90 to 180 and get 270

Answer 2

Hi!

If the pattern starts off with 5 going to 10, then that would be multiplying by 2. Then, from 10 to 30 would be multiplying by 3. From 30 to 60 would be 2, and 60 to 180 would be 3. So, the pattern is multiply by 2, then multiply by 3, then by 2, then by 3, and so on. So, if we multiply 180 by 2, we get 360, the answer.

Hope this helps!
