PRACTICE EXAMPLES:
Can we identify the patterns below and insert the missing values?
2, 4, 6, 8, ___ = 2, 4, 6, 8, 10
We keep adding 2s, therefore the missing value is 10.

5, 10, 15, 20, 25, ___ = 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30

We keep adding 10s, therefore the missing value is 30.

3, 6, 9, ___, ____, 18 = 3, 6, 9, 12, 15

We keep adding 3s, therefore the missing values are 12 and 15.

14, 12, 10, 8, ___ = 14, 12, 10, 8, 6
