Rule for Increasing Arithmetic Pattern (Level 1)

This math topic revolves around identifying the rules of increasing arithmetic sequences. Each question presents a sequence of numbers and several potential rules describing how the sequence progresses. Students must select the correct rule that generates the sequence from given options. The options include starting with a specific number and adding a constant amount, or using other arithmetic operations. This practice focuses on building skills in recognizing patterns in sequences and understanding how they are generated progressively.
