Q1. Halid makes a sequence of 5 numbers. The first number is 2.The last number is 18. His rule is to add the same amount each time.Write in the missing numbers.

Q2. Fill in the empty boxes to complete the pattern. n+6 4n + 3 n 4n 7n + 6 7n + 3

Q3. Write the next two numbers in Liams sequence: 300, 175, 50, ____ ______ ______ Q4. Carol has a rule for a sequence of numbers. Her rule is The next number is the sum of the two previous numbers. Use Carols rule to write in the three missing numbers. _____ _____ _____, 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, ... Q5. The numbers in this sequence increase by 7 each time. 1 8 15 22 29 .... The sequence continues in the same way. Will the number 777 be in the sequence? Explain how you know. Q6. The rule for this sequence of numbers is add 3 each time. 1 4 7 10 13 16 The sequence continues in the same way. Mary says, No matter how far you go there will never be a multiple of 3 in the sequence. Is she correct? Explain how you know. Q7. Here is a number chart. Every third number in the chart has a circle on it.

The chart continues in the same way.Here is another row in the chart.

Draw the missing circles. Will the number 1003 have a circle on it? Explain how you know. Q8. A sequence of numbers starts at 11 and follows the rule double the last number and then subtract 3 11 19 35 67 131 ... The sequence continues. The number 4099 is in the sequence. Calculate the number which comes immediately before 4099 in the sequence. Q9. A sequence starts at 500 and 80 is subtracted each time. 500 420 340 ... Write the first two numbers in the sequence which are less than zero.

Award TWO marks for all three boxes correct as shown below. 4n + 6

n+3
7n

If only two boxes are correct, award ONE mark. No marks are awarded for only one correct box. Accept 1n for n. Accept 7n + 0 for 7n and similar alternatives. Accept 3 + n for n + 3 and similar alternatives.

No is circled AND one of the following: an explanation which recognises that 777 is not one more than a multiple of 7, eg: All the numbers are one more than a multiple of 7 There are no multiples of 7 in the sequence 778 is in the sequence 771 works but 777 doesnt

OR an explanation which recognises that 777 is a multiple of 7, eg: 777 is a multiple of 7 777 7 = 111

OR an explanation which relies solely on the start of the sequence, eg: The sequence started at 1 The sequence doesnt start at 0. No must be indicated for the award of the mark, unless a complete and correct explanation is given, eg: 777 is a multiple of 7, and the numbers in the sequence arent. No mark is awarded for circling No alone.

Do not accept vague or incomplete explanations, eg: Its adding 7 every time There are no 7s in the sequence.

M6.

Explanation which recognises that each number is one more than a multiple of 3,eg It starts at 1 and keeps adding 3 so it misses all the multiples of 3, Multiples of 3 are all 1 less than the numbers. No mark is awarded for circling Yes alone. Do not accept vague or arbitrary explanations such as Theyre too big; It doesnt go far enough; It is adding 3 all the time. If No is circled but a correct unambiguous explanation is given then award the mark.

M7.

Two numbers circled as shown:

An explanation which recognises that 1003 is not a multiple of 3, eg: Because 1003 is not divisible by 3 Because 1003 is not a multiple of 3 Because 1003 is not in the 3 times table Because I divided 1003 by 3 and there was a remainder Because 1003 + 3 has a decimal answer

Bearwood Primary School

Because 1 + 0 + 0 + 3 = 4, and 4 is not a multiple of 3 Because 1003 has a digital sum of 4 Because 1002 is the nearest in the 3 times table Because 1000 is not divisible by 3 Because 999 is divisible by 3.

Do not award the mark if additional incorrect numbers are circled. Accept alternative unambiguous indications, eg ticks, crosses. No mark is awarded for circling No alone. Do not accept vague or arbitrary explanations, eg: Because 1003 ends in 3 Because 1003 is in the third column Because if you keep going in 3s you will go past it. If Yes is circled but a correct unambiguous explanation is given, then award the mark.

Award TWO marks for the correct answer of 2051 If the answer is incorrect, award ONE mark for evidence of appropriate method, eg (4099 + 3) 2 OR continuation of sequence, eg 259, 515, 1027, wrong number Answer need not be obtained for the award of ONE mark.
