Number Relationships

By the end of this worksheet, you will be able to:

• Describe and create number patterns involving the four rules.
• Explore algebraic thinking as it relates to number pattern.

Key Points:

• Algebraic Thinking involves recognizing patterns and making a general statement.
• To create number pattern involving the four rules, you continuously perform the mathematical operation on the preceding number.
  -e.g. 3, 6, 9 …(add 3 to the preceding number)
  -e.g. 105, 100, 95… (Subtract 5 from the preceding number)
  -e.g. 1, 3, 9, 27… (Multiply the preceding number by 3)
  -e.g. 100, 50, 25….(Divide the preceding number by 2)
