Start at 2. Create a pattern that adds 2 to each number and then multiplies by 3. Stop when you have 5 numbers?

step 1: 2

step 2: (2+2)*3 = 12
step 3: (12+2)*3 = 42
step 4: (42+2)*3 = 132
step 5: (132+2)*3 = 402

How about start at 7. Create a pattern that multiples each number by 7 and then adds 1. Stop when you have 5 numbers enjoy solving this problem🤗

To create a pattern, we'll start with the number 2.

First, we'll add 2 to the starting number:
2 + 2 = 4

Next, we'll multiply the result by 3:
4 * 3 = 12

Now we have the first number in our pattern: 12.

To find the second number in the pattern, we'll follow the same steps:

Adding 2 to the previous number:
12 + 2 = 14

Multiplying the result by 3:
14 * 3 = 42

So, the second number in the pattern is 42.

Continuing this process, we'll find the third, fourth, and fifth numbers in the pattern:

Third number:
42 + 2 = 44
44 * 3 = 132

Fourth number:
132 + 2 = 134
134 * 3 = 402

Fifth number:
402 + 2 = 404
404 * 3 = 1212

Therefore, the pattern that adds 2 to each number and then multiplies by 3, starting from 2 and stopping at 5 numbers, is:
12, 42, 132, 402, 1212.

Just joking

I think both are smart I understood.😀

What is the answer

2 + 2 * 3 + 2 * 3
