Sequence Patterns GCSE Maths
Sequence pattern questions test whether you can recognise how numbers change from one term to the next.
What to Check
- Is the same number added each time?
- Is the same number multiplied each time?
- Are the second differences constant?
- Does the sequence involve squares or cubes?
Exam tip: Write the pattern down in words before trying to find a formula.
Common mistake: Students often guess the next term without checking the full pattern.
