Question

Carlos wants to arrange few of the chairs in his restaurant in a particular pattern. Which of the following forms a pattern?

• A. 2, 3, 4, 2, 3, 4, 2, 3, 4
• B. 1, 3, 5, 2, 3, 2, 1, 5, 1
• C. 2, 5, 3, 1, 2, 1, 5, 9, 0
• D. 9, 0, 1, 9, 4, 0, 5, 2, 6

Answer 1

The correct option is A 2, 3, 4, 2, 3, 4, 2, 3, 4

The first sequence is:
2, 3, 4, 2, 3, 4, 2, 3, 4

Here, 2, 3, 4 are repeated and the next term is predictable. Hence, this follows a pattern.

The next sequence is:
1, 3, 5, 2, 3, 2, 1, 5, 1

Here, the terms are not repeated and the next term is not predictable. Hence, this does not form a pattern.



The next sequence is:

2, 5, 3, 1, 2, 1, 5, 9, 0

Here, the terms are not repeated and the next term is not predictable. Hence, this does not form a pattern.

The next sequence is:
9, 0, 1, 9, 4, 0, 5, 2, 6

Here, the terms are not repeated and the next term is not predictable. Hence, this does not form a pattern.

Hence, the chairs can be arranged in the following pattern:

2, 3, 4, 2, 3, 4, 2, 3, 4
