ANSWERS

1. Let’s solve 120 ÷ 5 (20−17) using PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), Addition and Subtraction (from left to right)).
Parentheses first:

20 – 17 = 3

So, the expression simplifies to:

120 ÷ 5(3)

Division and Multiplication (left to right):

First, divide:

120 ÷ 5 = 24

Then, multiply by 3:

24 × 3 = 72

Final Answer: 72

2. Let’s solve using PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), Addition and Subtraction (from left to right)).

Parentheses first:

(8 + 4) = 12

Now the expression simplifies to:

12 × 3 − 10 ÷ 2

Multiplication and Division (left to right):

First, multiply:

12 × 3 = 36

Then, divide:

10 ÷ 2 = 5

Now the expression simplifies to:

36 – 5 = 31

Final Answer: 31

3. Let’s solve using PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), Addition and Subtraction (from left to right)).

Parentheses first:

(5 + 5) = 10

Now the expression simplifies to:

50 ÷ 10 + 6 × 2

Multiplication and Division (left to right):

First, divide:

50 ÷ 10 = 5

Then, multiply:

6 × 2 = 12

Now the expression simplifies to:

5 + 12 = 17

Final Answer: 17

4. Let’s solve using PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), Addition and Subtraction (from left to right)).

Parentheses first:

20 + 10 = 30

So, the expression becomes:

30 ÷ 5 + (3 × 4) − 7

Multiplication and Division (left to right):

30 ÷ 5 = 6

3 × 4 = 12

Now the expression becomes:

6 + 12 – 7

Addition and Subtraction (left to right):

6 + 12 = 18

18 − 7 = 11

Final Answer: 11

  

5. We observe the difference between consecutive terms:

9 − 5 = 4

17 − 9 = 8

33 − 17 = 16

65 − 33 = 32

The differences follow this sequence: 4, 8, 16, 32

We see that each difference is doubling:

4 = 2^2

8 = 2^3

16 = 2^4

32 = 2^5

The next difference should be 𝟐^𝟔 = 𝟔𝟒

65 + 64 = 129

The next number in the series is 129.

6. Identify the differences between consecutive terms

6 − 5 = 1

9 − 6 = 3

14 − 9 = 5

21 − 14 = 7

The differences form the sequence: 1, 3, 5, 7

The differences follow an increasing odd number sequence: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9

Find the missing number

The next difference should be 9, so:

21 + 9 = 30

Final Answer: 30

7. The given sequence is: 2, 2, 4, 6, 10, 16, ?, is Fibonacci-like way:

1. In the Fibonacci sequence, each term is the sum of the two preceding terms.

2. Here, instead of directly summing the two previous numbers, we observe the pattern:

First two numbers are 2 and 2 (starting values).

Third number = 2 + 2 = 4

Fourth number = 2 + 4 = 6

Fifth number = 4 + 6 = 10

Sixth number = 6 + 10 = 16

Seventh number = 10 + 16 = 26

Thus, the missing number follows the same pattern:

16+10=26

Final Answer: 26

8.

Observing the numbers, we notice:

𝟒 = 𝟐^2

𝟏𝟎𝟎 = 𝟏𝟎^2

𝟑𝟔𝟎𝟎 = 𝟔𝟎^2

𝟏𝟕𝟔𝟒𝟎𝟎 = 𝟒𝟐𝟎^2

Each term follows the pattern:

(𝑃𝑟𝑒𝑣𝑖𝑜𝑢𝑠𝐵𝑎𝑠𝑒)×(𝑆𝑜𝑚𝑒𝐹𝑎𝑐𝑡𝑜𝑟)=𝑁𝑒𝑤𝐵𝑎𝑠𝑒

2 → 10 (multiplied by 5)

10 → 60 (multiplied by 6)
