  1. 5, 8, 11, 14.

    4, 12, 36, 108, 324, 972.


  2. The difference between 11 and 14 is 3. So the first thing you should try is adding 3 to 5.

    5, 8, 11, 14

    That works! The difference between all the numbers is 3.

    If you multiply 36 by 3 you get 108. So try multiplying 4 by 3.

    4, 12, 36, 108

    That works! 4 x 3 = 12. 12 x 3 = 36. 36 x 3 = 108.

    So finish the sequence.

    4, 12, 36, 108, 324, 972

    So the blanks should be filled with: 8, 12, 324, 972 respectively

  3. 5, 8, 11, 14

  4. first is 8. ---5, 8, 11, 14 you're adding three each time.

    second is 12. ---4, 12, 36, 108 you're multiplying 3 each time
