What is the next number in the sequence: 4, 8, ___?
14
10
12
16
Adding 4 to 8 results in 12, which continues the pattern. The sequence is formed by repeatedly adding 4.
Which of these numbers is reached by skip counting by 4 starting at 0: 16, 17, 18, or 19?
17
16
19
18
Skip counting by 4 from 0 produces multiples of 4. Since 16 is 4 multiplied by 4, it is the correct answer.
If you count by 4's starting from 12, what number do you get next?
20
16
18
14
Adding 4 to 12 gives 16, which is the next number in this skip counting sequence. The pattern is consistent with adding 4 each time.
Which of these is not a multiple of 4?
15
16
12
8
Multiples of 4 are numbers that can be divided evenly by 4, such as 8, 12, and 16. Since 15 is not divisible by 4, it is the incorrect option.
What is the sum of the first two numbers when counting by 4 starting from 4?
16
12
10
14
The first two numbers in the sequence are 4 and 8. Their sum, 4 + 8, equals 12, which confirms the addition within the sequence.
What is the 5th number in the sequence when skip counting by 4 starting from 0?
16
14
12
18
Starting at 0 and adding 4 each time, the sequence is 0, 4, 8, 12, 16. The 5th number is therefore 16.
If you skip count by 4 starting at 3, what is the 4th number in the sequence?
15
17
13
11
Beginning with 3 and adding 4 repeatedly gives 3, 7, 11, and then 15. Thus, the 4th number in the sequence is 15.
How many groups of 4 are there in 32?
7
8
6
9
Dividing 32 by 4 gives 8, which means there are 8 groups of 4 in 32. This applies basic division in the context of skip counting.
What is the missing number in the sequence: 8, __, 16, 20?
11
12
13
10
When skip counting by 4 starting at 8, adding 4 gives 12, followed by 16 and then 20. Therefore, the missing number is 12.
If a group of 4 apples is added repeatedly 5 times, how many apples are there in total?
18
24
20
22
Multiplying the number of apples per group (4) by the number of times (5) gives 20 apples in total. This uses basic multiplication as repeated addition.
Which sequence correctly represents skip counting by 4 starting from 12?
12, 16, 18, 22, 26
12, 16, 20, 24, 28
12, 15, 18, 21, 24
12, 14, 16, 18, 20
The correct sequence adds 4 to each term: 12, then 16, 20, 24, and 28. This option follows the skip counting rule precisely.
If you count by 4's starting at 2, which of these numbers will appear in the sequence?
8
10
14
12
Starting at 2 and adding 4 repeatedly yields the sequence: 2, 6, 10, 14, ... . The number 10 clearly appears in this sequence.
In a race, a runner covers 4 meters with each step. How far does he run in 7 steps?
32
28
24
36
Multiplying the distance per step (4 meters) by 7 gives 28 meters. This is a practical application of multiplication and skip counting.
What is the sum of the first four numbers when skip counting by 4 starting from 0?
20
32
28
24
The first four numbers in the sequence are 0, 4, 8, and 12. Their sum is 0 + 4 + 8 + 12, which equals 24.
How many times must you add 4 to the number 4 to reach 36?
10
9
7
8
Starting from 4, adding 4 eight times results in the value 36 (4 + 8×4 = 36). This requires understanding of arithmetic sequences.
A staircase has steps each 4 inches high. If there are 15 steps, what is the total height of the staircase in inches?
55
65
50
60
Multiplying the number of steps (15) by the height of each step (4 inches) gives a total of 60 inches. This applies real-life multiplication to a skip counting scenario.
If a dot pattern has 5 rows where the first row has 4 dots and each subsequent row increases the count by 4, what is the total number of dots?
60
65
50
55
The rows contain 4, 8, 12, 16, and 20 dots respectively. Adding these together (4+8+12+16+20) gives a total of 60 dots.
A baker arranges cookies in rows, with each row containing 4 cookies. If there are 37 cookies, how many complete rows can be formed?
11
9
8
10
Dividing 37 by 4 gives 9 complete rows with a remainder. Only full rows are considered, so the correct answer is 9.
A student skip counts by 4 starting with 4 and writes the sequence: 4, 8, 12, 15, 20. Which number is incorrect according to the proper skip counting sequence?
20
16
15
12
The correct skip counting sequence starting from 4 should be 4, 8, 12, 16, 20. The number 15 is the error in this sequence.
If you have a sequence of 25 numbers by counting by 4 and the last number of the sequence is 100, what is the first number?
2
8
6
4
Using the arithmetic sequence formula, the 25th term is given by the first term plus 24 times 4. Solving first_term + 96 = 100 gives a first term of 4.
0
