Missing value in arithmetic pattern

Teaching Transcript

🎙️

Let's find the missing value in this increasing arithmetic pattern

In arithmetic patterns, the difference between terms is always the same. We can see that there's a difference of 4 between 11 and 5

So there must be a difference of 4 between 3 and our mystery term.

Adding 4 to 3 means that the missing term must be 7

This math skill teaches how to find a missing value in an increasing arithmetic sequence by identifying the constant difference between terms and using this difference to calculate the unknown term.
