Let’s analyze the pattern in the given equations:
- 11 + 12 = 32
- 12 + 13 = 52
- 13 + 14 = 72
Step 1: Identifying the Pattern
Observing the inputs and outputs, we check for a mathematical relationship:
- Looking at the first equation:
- 11 + 12 = 32
- The sum (11 + 12) = 23 but the result is 32
- Second equation:
- 12 + 13 = 52
- The sum (12 + 13) = 25 but the result is 52
- Third equation:
- 13 + 14 = 72
- The sum (13 + 14) = 27 but the result is 72.
Step 2: Finding a Pattern
Observing the results:
- 32 → 52 → 72
This suggests a pattern of adding 20 to each result.
So, continuing the pattern:
- 15 + 16 = ?
- Following the sequence, the next result should be 92 Answer: 92
11 + 12 take second didget of each add them together 1 + 2 = 3 first didget of each
1 + 1 = 2 total 32
12 + 13 second didget 2 + 3 =5 first didgets 1 + 1 = 2 total 52
13 + 14 sedond didget 3 + 4 = 7 first didget 1 +1 = 2 total 72
there for 15 + 16 second didgets 5 + 6 = 11 first didgets 1 + 1 = 2 total 1102
The answers are reversed ie 27 becomes 72,so therefore 15+16=31, which becomes 13
14 + 15 = 92
15 + 16 = 112
You need to complete the missing sequence to go on to the next step (14 + 15 = 92) to answer 15 + 16 = ??, therefore 15 + 16 + previous seq. answers (92 + seq. # 20) = 112. To make this answer correctly it would be 15 + 16 = 112.
