Directions:
Determine the missing number pair to complete the given sequence:
(4, 16), (7, 28), (10, 40), ?, (16, 64)
Correct Answer :
(13, 52)
Solution :
The correct option is (13, 52).
To find the missing number pair, let us analyze the pattern in the given sequence of pairs:
Let each pair be represented as .
Pattern for the first number ():
The first number in each pair increases by at each step:
So, the first number of the missing pair is .
Pattern for the second number ():
The second number in each pair is times the first number ():
Alternatively, the second number increases by at each step (, , , ).
Therefore, the missing number pair is (13, 52).
