Michael and john are creating patterns. each pattern starts at 1. michael uses the rule "multiply by 4". john uses the rule "multiply by 6".

complete the table attached to show the next three numbers in each pattern.

we are confused about the "term" does it mean we should find the 23rd number in each pattern? if so, this is incredibly complex for a 5th grader.

option a is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

scale factor: it is used to find proportional measurements.

proportions means having the same ratio.

scale factor is the ratio of the model measurement to the actual measurement in a simplest form.

or we can say that the ratio of any two corresponding lengths in two similar geometric figures

if the scale factor is more than 1, then it is an enlargement,

if the scale factor less than 1, then it is a reduction.

given the two geometric figure:

by definition of proportions, we have

i think the amount would be $140.62
