Asked by ❄ Snowflake ❄

Fill in the blank, then describe the pattern in words:

2.7, 4.1, 5.5, *_9.7_*, 8.3
Can you help me with describing it, please?
Also, is 9.7 correct?

Answered by R_scott
the sequence is arithmetic ... the common difference is 1.4

9.7 is not correct

I am not supposed to put the common difference in the blank, instead, I am supposed to continue the pattern. I just needed help with the wording. I did get 1.4 as my difference though.
Answered by R_scott
the blank is midway between 5.5 and 8.3 ... 1.4 away from each of them
Answered by oobleck
yes. The 9.7 would be the next element after 8.3

Oh, I see. I think I mixed the spots up. I believe the correct answer for the blank is 6.9? Since 6.9 - 5.5 = 1.4
