Find the next four terms of the given number pattern:
100, 92, 84, 76, 68, ….. [3 marks]

The given series is 100, 92, 84, 76, 68, …..
Since the numbers are in descending order, let us check what number has been subtracted from each number to get the next number.
100 - 8 = 92
92 - 8 = 84
84 - 8 = 76
76 - 8 = 68.
[1.5 marks]
So continuing the series we get,
68 - 8 = 60
60 - 8 = 52
52 - 8 = 44
44 - 8 = 36
[1 mark]
So the next four terms in the series would be 60, 52, 44 and 36.
