Patterning - Missing from Increasing Arithmetic Number Pattern (Level 1)

This math topic focuses on identifying missing numbers in increasing arithmetic sequences. Students are asked to determine the missing terms that complete the patterns in a sequence of numbers where all the sequences show a consistent incremental pattern. Each problem provides multiple-choice answers for the learners to select the correct number that fits logically in the series to maintain the increasing order. These problems develop a foundational understanding of arithmetic sequences and logical reasoning in pattern recognition.
