fill in the blank 19=8, 6=3, 70=7, 8=5, 4=4, 60=5, 15=7, 16=? 17=?
16 = 7 and 17 = 9 because the number of letters in the spelling sixteen is 7 and those of seventeen is 9.

To find the missing values in this pattern, we need to identify the relationship between the two numbers in each equation. Let's analyze the given equations:
19=8: The second number is obtained by counting the number of letters in the English spelling of the first number (nineteen has eight letters).
6=3: Similarly, the second number is the count of letters in the word "six".
70=7: The second number is the count of letters in the word "seventy".
8=5: Again, the second number corresponds to the count of letters in the word "eight".
4=4: In this case, both numbers are equal because the word "four" has four letters.
60=5: The second number corresponds to the count of letters in the word "sixty".
15=7: The second number is the count of letters in the word "fifteen".
Now, we can apply the same pattern to fill in the missing values:
16: The word "sixteen" has seven letters, so the missing value is 7.
17: The word "seventeen" has nine letters, so the missing value is 9.
So, the missing values in the pattern are 7 and 9.
