Good to know

Can a sequence have two possible answers?

No. Every sequence follows one rule: add or subtract the same number, or multiply or divide by the same number. A sequence is only used when exactly one such rule fits the numbers you can see, and at least two neighbouring numbers are always shown. For example 2, 4, ___, ___ is never used, because it could be +2 or ×2.

What does the answer key show?

The missing numbers and the rule of each sequence, such as +3 or ×2.

Will the problems change when I switch paper size or layout?

No. Paper size, layout, answer key and the other display options keep the same problems. Use “New problems” for a fresh set. The code in the footer identifies each problem set, and the answer key carries the same code.

What is a worksheet pack?

A pack puts 3, 5 or 10 worksheets with the same settings but different problems into one PDF. Each sheet is numbered, and its answer key follows all the worksheets with the same sheet number.
