Question

Evangeline arranges 9 chocolates in various ways. Help her to identify the order of chocolates that form a pattern.

• A.
• B.
• C.
• D.

Answer 1

The correct option is A

Let us count the chocolates in each order.

Here, the sequence is 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2...

A pattern within any list of numbers is a type of structure that is used to predict the next number in that pattern.

Here, the next number is predictable.

This follows a pattern.

The next option is:


Here, the sequence is:
1, 2, 1, 1, 1, 3

This does not follow a pattern.


The next option is:


Here, the sequence is:
1, 2, 1, 3, 1, 1

This does not follow a pattern.


The next option is:


The sequence is:
1, 2, 2, 1, 1, 2

This does not follow a pattern.

Hence, the sequence given by the option

follows a pattern.
