Can you see the rule and continue the pattern?

Ans: It can be observed that in the 1st1��  image, there is only a 11 arrow head pointing in the upward direction. While 2nd image, there is only a 11 arrow head and is pointing in the downward direction. Similarly in the 3rd3�� image, there are only 22 arrow heads pointing in the upward direction. In the 4th4�ℎ image, there are only 22 arrow heads pointing in the downward direction. As above. the arrowheads become 3rd3�� in the fifth and 6th6�ℎ image, pointing upward and downward alternately. So, in the 7th7�ℎ and 8th8�ℎ image of the pattern, there will be 444arrowheads, pointing upward and downward alternately.

7. Number Patterns:

We have made some patterns with pictures. We can make patterns with numbers too. Like 

21,41,61,81,101,12121,41,61,81,101,121

You know the next number, don’t you? This is a growing pattern. It can go on and on.

21,41,61,81,101,121,141,161…21,41,61,81,101,121,141,161…

Ans: In the above number pattern, the series is growing by 2020 .

21,41,61,81,101,121,141,161,181,201,221,24121,41,61,81,101,121,141,161,181,201,221,241

8. A Look for the rules and continue these growing patterns:

a) 51,56,61,66,____,_____51,56,61,66,____,_____

Ans: Here each number is obtained by adding 55 to the previous numbers, such as 51+5=56+,56+5=6151+5=56+,56+5=61 .

So the required next two numbers are 66+5=71,71+5=7666+5=71,71+5=76 .

Therefore the pattern is 

51,56,61,66,71,7651,56,61,66,71,76

b) 7,___,21,28,35,___,____7,___,21,28,35,___,____

Ans: In this series the table is the multiple of 77i.e.

7×1=77×1=7

7×2=147×2=14

7×3=217×3=21

Therefore by following the above table, the required series is

7,14,21,28,35,42,497,14,21,28,35,42,49

c) 2,4,8,16,32,___,___,___2,4,8,16,32,___,___,___

Ans; It can be written as: 

2×1=22×1=2

2×2=42×2=4

2×4=82×4=8

2×8=162×8=16

In this series we keep multiplying 22 with the previous answer received to complete the pattern further.  

Therefore the series is 2,4,8,16,32,64,1282,4,8,16,32,64,128

d) 12A,13B,14C,____,____12�,13�,14�,____,____

Ans: It can be observed that here each number increases by 11 and alphabets are written in their order along with the increasing numbers.

So the pattern is 12A,13B,14C,15D,16E12�,13�,14�,15�,16�

9. Look at these growing patterns Find out what to add to each number to get the next one:  

a) 1,3,6,10,____,_____,____,____,____1,3,6,10,____,_____,____,____,____

Ans; Here the first number is 11

The pattern can be written as:

1+2=3,3+3=6,6+4=10,10+5=15,15+6=21,21+7=28,28+8=36,36+9=451+2=3,3+3=6,6+4=10,10+5=15,15+6=21,21+7=28,28+8=36,36+9=45

Therefore the number is 1,3,6,10,15,21,28,36,451,3,6,10,15,21,28,36,45

b) 0,2,6,12,___,____,____,____,___0,2,6,12,___,____,____,____,___

Ans; In this series, the pattern can be written as: 

0+2=2,2+4=6,6+6=12,12+8=20,20+10=30,30+12=42,42+14=56,56+16=720+2=2,2+4=6,6+6=12,12+8=20,20+10=30,30+12=42,42+14=56,56+16=72The new series is as follows:

0,2,6,12,20,30,42,56,720,2,6,12,20,30,42,56,72

c) 1,3,7,13,___,___,___,___,___1,3,7,13,___,___,___,___,___

Ans: Following sequence is observed in this pattern:

2+1=3,3+3=6,6+5=11,11+7=182+1=3,3+3=6,6+5=11,11+7=18

The number which is added in each step is growing by 22 .Hence the pattern is as follows:

1, 3, 7, 13, 21, 31, 43, 57, 73 1, 3, 7, 13, 21, 31, 43, 57, 73 



d) 2,3,6,11,18,___,___,___,___,___2,3,6,11,18,___,___,___,___,___

Ans: In this the following sequence is observed in this pattern:

2 + 1 = 3,3 + 3 = 6, 6 + 5 = 11 ,11 + 7 = 182 + 1 = 3,3 + 3 = 6, 6 + 5 = 11 ,11 + 7 = 18

The number which is added in each step is growing by 22 . Hence the pattern is as follows:

2, 3, 6, 11, 18, 27, 38, 51, 662, 3, 6, 11, 18, 27, 38, 51, 66

10. Amrita and Paritosh are writing secret messages:

NCERT Solutions for Class 3 Maths Chapter 10 Play With Patterns

Students can practice and cross-check their answers with the NCERT Solutions for Class 3 Maths Chapter 10– Play with Patterns provided on Study Studio. If you are facing difficulties in understanding any topic, you can refer to these NCERT Solutions to develop your concepts. You can also take the help of our experienced teachers if you have any doubt relating to the topic, by signing up for the live classes.

In the NCERT Solutions for Class 3 Maths Chapter 10– Play with Patterns, students will learn how to recognize increasing and decreasing patterns in pictures and numbers. You will also be able to identify the rules for growing and reducing patterns and extend the patterns using rules.

We see patterns everywhere around us. They could be in the clothes that we wear or bed sheets or curtains in our homes or in the toys that we play with, etc. So what is the pattern? Patterns are created when figures, shapes, objects, etc. are arranged in a particular order and repeated over and over again. We must have seen different kinds of patterns in our daily life.

Let us look at the pattern below.

(Image to be added soon)

This is a pattern.       

Maths is full of patterns. We find patterns in alphabets, numbers, shapes, etc. 

For Example: Let us see Table of 3.

3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21……. We are skipping each number by 3. 

Once you know the rule for a pattern you can continue with other similar patterns.

Growing and Reducing Patterns

Picture Patterns

A picture can be made by increasing or decreasing the number of objects in it.

(Image to be added soon)

This is a growing pattern. In the above picture, the pattern keeps growing. It does not repeat. The rule followed in the pattern is: the number of stars is growing by 1 in each column.

Let us see the next picture.

(Image to be added soon)

This is a reducing pattern. Now see the rule of the pattern followed in the above picture. In the first row, the lines are decreasing by 1 and in the second row, the lines are decreasing by 2.

Number Patterns

Increasing and decreasing patterns can be formed with numbers also.

Example: 21, 31, 41, 51, 61, ….. ? What will be the next number?

This is a growing pattern. The rule followed is that by adding 10 we obtain the next number to the previous number. 

So, the next number is: 61 + 10 = 71.

Let us see the reducing pattern.

Example: What is the next number in the pattern: 35, 28, 21, _______, 7?

This is a reducing pattern. The rule followed is that by subtracting 7 we obtain the next number from the previous number. 

So, the next number is: 21 – 7 = 14.

In Number patterns, we also have Even and Odd Number Patterns. The patterns that end with even numbers are even number patterns and the numbers that end with odd numbers are called odd numbers.

Secret Messages

How do you write a secret message? If you want to write a message to your friend and you don’t want anyone else to read the message then you can write the message in the code language. For example, we write the letters or the numbers following the rule of pattern, and later your friend can decode them. It is actually a lot of fun doing that.

What is happening in the above picture? Different signs or objects are assigned to the letters. You write the message in those signs, which is called coding. You decode the message by matching the signs with the letters.

Conclusion

Recognizing patterns for coding and decoding is important for the development of mathematical skills. With these basic rules and concepts of patterns now you can solve any kind of reasoning question. You just need to observe the pattern very carefully and then decode it.
