4, The product of the factor 4 times the factor 3, The product of the factor 4 times the factor 3 times the factor 3 again, 108, The product of the factor 108 times the factor 3

Answer 1

To create a pattern using the rule "Multiply by 3," let's look at each response given:

1. 4 - This is our starting number.
2. The product of the factor 4 times the factor 3 - This means \(4 \times 3 = 12\).
3. The product of the factor 4 times the factor 3 times the factor 3 again - This means \(4 \times 3 \times 3 = 36\).
4. 108 - This is another number we can work with.
5. The product of the factor 108 times the factor 3 - This means \(108 \times 3 = 324\).

Now, arranging them in terms of their progression by multiplying by 3:

• Start with 4.
• Multiply by 3: \(4 \times 3 = 12\).
• Multiply by 3 again: \(12 \times 3 = 36\).
• Skip to 108.
• Multiply by 3: \(108 \times 3 = 324\).

The order using the rule "Multiply by 3" is:

1. 4
2. The product of the factor 4 times the factor 3 (which is 12)
3. The product of the factor 4 times the factor 3 times the factor 3 again (which is 36)
4. 108
5. The product of the factor 108 times the factor 3 (which is 324)

So, to fill in the boxes:

1. 4 goes in the first box.
2. The product of the factor 4 times the factor 3 goes in the second box.
3. The product of the factor 4 times the factor 3 times the factor 3 again goes in the third box.
4. 108 goes in the fourth box.
5. The product of the factor 108 times the factor 3 goes in the fifth box.

This is the correct sequence based on the multiplication pattern of 3.
