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.
