The rule for the pattern is y=x+2. That rule is in the table format in which it would originally be in, but the worded rule would be 'It increases by 2 each time'.
consecutive square numbers
+5
Add 4 to the previous number
a recursive pattern is when you always use the next term in the pattern... for example 4,(x2+1) 9,(x2+1) 19,(x2+1) 39,(x2+1) 79,(x2+1) 159
The rule of this pattern is obfuscated by the omission of spaces, giving the impression that this is the number "111,359,173,157". However, the underlying pattern follows the function of the Fibonacci series, but adding sets of 3 instead of sets of 2. So, 1+1+1=3, 1+1+3=5, 1+3+5=9, 3+5+9=17, 5+9+17=31, 9+17+31=57.
add 4 to every other number 1(+4)=5, 5(+4)=9 2(+4)=6
+2, probably.

-9
The pattern rule is: 4 5 6 7 8 and so the next number will be 33+9 = 42
1/5 > 1/9 To test Bring both fractions to a common denominator of 45' Hence 9/45 & 5/45 Compare numerators 9 > 5 Hence it follows 9/45 > 5/45 1/5 > 1/9 NB As a rule of thumb , the larger the denominator , then the smaller the fraction.
