write a number pattern for 8 starfish each has 5 arms.

* * * * * * * *

Do you see 8 starfish each with 5 arms stretched out? That would be a total of
8 * 5 arms.

5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40

To create a number pattern for 8 starfish, each having 5 arms, we can follow these steps:

1. Start with the number of starfish, which is 8.
2. Multiply the number of starfish by the number of arms each starfish has, which is 5.
3. Write down the result, which gives us the total number of arms.

Let's compute the number of arms using these steps:

Total number of arms = 8 (starfish) × 5 (arms per starfish)
= 40

So, the number pattern for 8 starfish, each having 5 arms, is: 40.
