This video tutorial teaches how to identify number patterns using in and out boxes. It covers addition and subtraction rules, demonstrating how to find patterns by analyzing changes in numbers. The lesson emphasizes the importance of continuing to explore number pairs to identify consistent rules, such as adding or subtracting a specific number. By the end, viewers will understand how to solve number patterns using these methods.

What is a common mistake when working with 'in and out' patterns?

• Stopping after the first pair of numbers

• Using multiplication instead of addition

• Counting backwards incorrectly

• Ignoring the pattern rule

What rule was discovered for the pattern where 8 goes in and 12 comes out?

• Multiply by 2

• Divide by 2

• Add 4

• Subtract 4

Which operation was initially considered but found incorrect for the decreasing pattern?

• Multiplication

• Division

• Addition

• Subtraction

What is the rule for the pattern where 10 goes in and 5 comes out?

• Subtract 5

• Divide by 2

• Multiply by 2

• Add 5

In the decreasing pattern, what is the result when 12 goes in?

• 2

• 5

• 7

• 10
