Solving Problems with Numerical Patterns

Stacy and Justin created number patterns. Stacy's rule is "Add 2". Justin's rule is "Add 4". Both patterns start at 0. Which is true about the third number in each of their patterns?

• The third number in both patterns is 4.

• The third number in both patterns is 8.

• The third number in Justin's pattern is double the number in Stacy's pattern.

• The third number in Justin's pattern is 2 more than the third number in Stacy's pattern.
