complete the pattern 3 8 13 18 23 what three numbers come next?
Isn't each number increased by 5?
28, 33, 38
To complete the pattern 3, 8, 13, 18, 23, we can observe that each number is incremented by 5.
Starting with the first number, 3, adding 5 gives us the second number, 8. Adding 5 again gives us the third number, 13. This pattern continues until we reach the fifth number, 23.
To find the next three numbers, we simply continue adding 5:
23 + 5 = 28
28 + 5 = 33
33 + 5 = 38
Therefore, the next three numbers in the pattern are 28, 33, and 38.
