Shawna thinks that 8x2=17. what number pattern shows that she not correct?
The product of two even numbers will be an even number.
The number pattern that shows Shawna is not correct is the pattern of multiplying a number by 2. In this pattern, the next number is obtained by doubling the previous number. However, 8 multiplied by 2 equals 16, not 17. So, Shawna's belief that 8 multiplied by 2 equals 17 contradicts the number pattern of multiplying a number by 2.
To determine the number pattern that shows that Shawna is not correct, we need to examine the multiplication table for 8.
To create the multiplication table for 8, we multiply 8 by each number starting from 1 and increasing by 1 each time:
8 x 1 = 8
8 x 2 = 16
8 x 3 = 24
8 x 4 = 32
8 x 5 = 40
8 x 6 = 48
8 x 7 = 56
8 x 8 = 64
8 x 9 = 72
8 x 10 = 80
By examining the multiplication table, we see that 8 multiplied by 2 is equal to 16, not 17. Therefore, the pattern that shows Shawna is not correct is that 8 multiplied by a number does not equal 17.
