Question 1

What number comes next in this pattern? 32, 44, 56, 68, 80, ___

A 81

B 104

C 92

D 93

Worked answer

Correct answer: C — 92

  • Look at the gaps: 32 to 44 is +12, 44 to 56 is +12.
  • The pattern adds 12 each time.
  • 80 + 12 = 92.
  • Why the other options are wrong:
  • A (81): The pattern goes up by 12 each time, not by 1.
  • B (104): That skips one number.
  • D (93): This is the correct answer (92) plus 1: an extra 1 was added at the end of the calculation (an off-by-1 error).

To continue a pattern, find the jump between two numbers and keep adding that same jump.
