Question

Please answer this correctly

Answer 1

Number of broken crayons Number of boxes

1-5 = 4

6-10 = 9

11-15 = 14

16-20 =19

21-25 =24

Explanation:

To find the number of boxes compared to the number of broken crayons you have to find 5 consecutive (hence there being five boxes to fill in) numbers with a constant rate of change. Start with the largest number possible that you can pick and then find the second largest so 24 and 19 the rate of change is 5. Compared to 17 and 19 the rate of change is 2 so it doesn’t have the same rate of change but if you try 19-5 you get 14 which is an option if you subtract 14-5 you get 9 which is another option 9-5 is 4 the lowest number you could possibly pick and they all have a constant rate of change of 5 so the answer is correct.
