Question

Here is a pattern made up of tiles.
How many tiles will be in the 5th Pattern?

Answer 1

26 tiles

Explanation:

In the picture attached, the pattern is shown.

From the picture, we can see that:

• the 1st pattern has 6 tiles

• the 2nd pattern has 6 + 5 = 11 tiles

• the 3rd pattern has 11 + 5 = 16 tiles

Therefore, the next patterns will have:

• 4th pattern, 16 + 5 = 21 tiles

• 5th pattern, 21 + 5 = 26 tiles
