1. You have that the rule for a number pattern is add 4 and the first term is 7.

2. Let's call "n" to the number in the line where each student is. Then, you can express this as below:

4n+7

3. So, you have:

Student N°1=4(1)+7=11
Student N°2=4(2)+7=15
Student N°3=4(3)+7=19
Student N°4=4(4)+7=23
Student N°5=4(5)+7=27
Student N°6=4(6)+7=31
Student N°7=4(7)+7=35
Student N°8=4(8)+7=39

What number should Jenna say?

The answer is: 39
