Answers, and the rule behind each one

  1. 1. B — two lemons. Rule: One more. Each group gets one more. So the last group gets one more too.
  2. 2. C — four beads. Rule: A pattern that repeats. The rods repeat the same two numbers, over and over.
  3. 3. D — seven beads. Rule: Count up by one. Each rod has one more bead than the one before.
  4. 4. D — six lemons. Rule: Put them together. Count both groups together to find how many there are in all.
  5. 5. A — six eggs. Rule: Put them together. Count both groups together to find how many there are in all.
  6. 6. A — two birds. Rule: One less. Each group loses one. So the last group loses one too.
  7. 7. C — one egg. Rule: One less. Each group loses one. So the last group loses one too.
  8. 8. B — four oranges. Rule: One less. Each group loses one. So the last group loses one too.
  9. 9. B — four beads. Rule: Count down by one. Each rod has one bead less than the one before.
  10. 10. B — eight carrots. Rule: Put them together. Count both groups together to find how many there are in all.
