12980,12970 _______,________,_______ number pattern

Question

Rule. ________________

Answer 1

To identify the number pattern and complete it, we can start by examining the given numbers: 12980, 12970.

The difference between the first two numbers is:

12980 - 12970 = 10.

This indicates that the pattern appears to involve subtracting 10 from each successive number.

Therefore, to continue the pattern:

1. 12970 - 10 = 12960
2. 12960 - 10 = 12950
3. 12950 - 10 = 12940

So, the completed sequence is:

12980, 12970, 12960, 12950, 12940.

Rule: Subtract 10 from the previous number to find the next number in the sequence.
