Question: What are the next 4 numbers in the pattern?
50, 45, 46, 41, 42, ___, ___, ___, ___ ...
Answer: 37, 38, 33, 34
Solution: There are two steps in the pattern. To get from 50 to 45, we subtract 5. To get from 45 to 46, we add 1. Then the pattern repeats: 46 – 5 = 41, 41 + 1 = 42, 42 – 5 = 37, 37 + 1 = 38, 38 – 5 = 33, 33 + 1 = 34.
