7.04 Missing numbers

Lesson

Are you ready?

Being able to find the number that we are skip counting by can help us find missing numbers. Let's give it a try. 

Write the next number in the pattern:

  1. $0$0, $5$5, $10$10, $15$15, $20$20, $25$25, $\editable{}$

Learn

Let's look now at how we can continue patterns to find missing numbers.

 

Apply

Complete the pattern below.

  1. $30$30 $\editable{}$ $56$56 $\editable{}$

Remember!

To find the pattern, think about how the numbers are changing- are they getting bigger or smaller? Then you can work out the missing values.

Outcomes

3.OA.D.9

Identify patterns in the addition table and the multiplication table and explain them using properties of operations (e.G. Observe that 4 times a number is always even, and explain why 4 times a number can be decomposed into two equal addends).
