5/9 − 5/12 = 5/36
Yes but a bit more. Difference is subtract and then take the absolute value. The difference between 5 and 9 is not 5 - 9 = -4, but abs(5 - 9) = abs(-4) = 4 Thus, the difference between 5 and 9 is the same as the difference between 9 and 5.
You should subtract in powers with the base of 3 The smallest number less than 23 is 32 or 9 The smallest multiple of 9 less than 23 is 18 ( 2 X 9 ), so 2 is your first number 23 - 18 = 5 The smallest number less than 5 is 31 or 3 The smallest multiple of 3 less than 5 is 1 ( 1 X 3 ), so 1 is your next number 5 - 3 = 2 So the answer is 212
Subtract 4 each time.
Each number is the sum of the two numbers before it: 4+5=9, 9+5=14, 14+9=23, 23+14=37... The next number is 37+23=60
