We are given table:

Input values (a) : 5 6 7 8 9

Output Values (b) : 3.8 4.6 5.6 ? ?

We need to find the missing values.

In order to find the common difference, we need subtract next output value from previous output value.

Therefore, common difference = 4.6 - 3.8 = 0.8.

In order to find next missing values, we need to add that common difference in previous value.

Therefore, next value of 5.6 is 5.6+ 0.8 = 6.4.

And other next value = 6.4 + 0.8 = 7.2.

Therefore, the common difference = 0.8 and missing outputs in table are 6.4 and 7.2.
