Answers, and the rule behind each one

  1. 1. C — five strawberries. Rule: Two more. Each group gets two more. So the last group gets two more too.
  2. 2. D — nine beads. Rule: A pattern that repeats. The rods repeat the same three numbers, over and over.
  3. 3. C — two lemons. Rule: Find the missing part. Count on from the first group until you reach the last group. That is how many are missing.
  4. 4. C — five beads. Rule: A pattern that repeats. The rods repeat the same three numbers, over and over.
  5. 5. D — two soccer balls. Rule: Take some away. Start with the first group, then take away the second. What is left is the answer.
  6. 6. B — eight cars. Rule: Two less. Each group loses two. So the last group loses two too.
  7. 7. D — five stars. Rule: Two less. Each group loses two. So the last group loses two too.
  8. 8. C — four stars. Rule: Two less. Each group loses two. So the last group loses two too.
  9. 9. D — two beads. Rule: A pattern that repeats. The rods repeat the same three numbers, over and over.
  10. 10. C — two stars. Rule: Find the missing part. Count on from the first group until you reach the last group. That is how many are missing.
