Answer 1

To find the common difference in an arithmetic sequence, subtract the first term from the second term (or any consecutive terms).

In this case:

Second term: 64
First term: 34

Common difference = Second term - First term
= 64 - 34
= 30

So, the common difference in the arithmetic sequence is 30.
