The answer is you divide the number that is given and then once you got the number you multiple.
====================
OK. Try it that way if you want to. Here's another way that might work:
-- Look at the first two numbers. Think of a rule that could take you from the first one
to the second one. There are many possible rules. Pick one. It doesn't matter at all
which one you pick.
-- Now look at the 2nd and 3rd numbers. See if the rule you picked could get you
from the 2nd one to the 3rd one.
-- If it does, then you're probably done. You could check it again with the 3rd and 4th
numbers in the sequence just to make sure, but chances are you've got it.
-- If the rule you picked doesn't get you from the 2nd number to the 3rd one, then
go back to the first two numbers.
Pick a different rule that could get you from the first number to the second one,
and go back around the loop again.
Keep trying new rules that work from the first to the second, until you find a rule
that works from the 2nd to the 3rd, from the 3rd to the 4th, and farther.
If it works for others, then it's the correct rule.

Since a yard is 3 feet, the rule is to multiply n by 3.
a
explain how to find the rule in a numerical pattern
She should find the greatest common number between the numerator and denominator. Then divide by this number.
The first step is to find the sequence rule. The sequence could be arithmetic. quadratic, geometric, recursively defined or any one of many special sequences. The sequence rule will give you the value of the nth term in terms of its position, n. Then simply substitute the next value of n in the rule.
