Question

Drag each tile to the correct box. Not all tiles will be used.
Find the next three terms of the pattern below.

25, 21, 17, ...

9
14
13
6
5

Answer 1

To find the next three terms in the pattern, we need to identify the pattern in the given sequence: 25, 21, 17.

1. The first term is 25.
2. The second term is 21 (25 - 4).
3. The third term is 17 (21 - 4).

The pattern shows that we are subtracting 4 from each term to get the next term.

Continuing this pattern:

- The next term after 17 would be:
17 - 4 = 13
- The term after that would be:
13 - 4 = 9
- The term after that would be:
9 - 4 = 5

So, the next three terms of the pattern are: **13, 9, 5**.

Based on the available options:
- 13
- 9
- 5

The tiles that would be used are:
- 13
- 9
- 5

The complete distribution of tiles would result in:
- Box 1: 13
- Box 2: 9
- Box 3: 5
