Pattern Math Terms

Introduction-pattern math terms:

A pattern, from the French patron, is a type of theme of recurring events or objects, sometimes referred to as elements of a set. These elements repeat in a predictable manner. It can be a template or model which can be used to generate things or parts of a thing, especially if the things that are created have enough in common for the underlying pattern to be inferred, in which case the things are said to exhibit the unique pattern.

Concept-pattern math terms:


In math, numeric patterns in algebra are pattern ready from numbers.

The numbers can be in a listing. Any math process likes addition, subtraction, multiplication, or division, you create the pattern.

Many of the patterns in math you observe will use addition. The same number will be additional to each number in the list to create the next number in the pattern math.

Example for pattern math terms:

2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14…

The pattern in math is to adding 2 always. The subsequently number is 16, then 18.


Example- pattern math terms:


Blue, black, orange and brown counters are arranged in a row. The brown counter is to the left of the orange counter and to the right of the blue counter. The black counter is to the left of the orange counter and not next to the blue one. What are the colors of the counters in the row from left to right?

Solution:

Given:

The brown counter is to the left of the orange counter and to the right of the blue counter.

Blue counter is to the left of brown counter

Brown counter is to the left of the orange counter

Given:

The black counter is to the left of the orange counter and not next to the blue one

Black counter is to the left of the orange counter

Black counter is not next to the blue counter

Black counter is between brown counter and orange counter.

So the order is: Blue, Brown, Black and Orange.
