Fascinating Fact:

A geometric sequence multiplies instead of adds, turning small numbers into giants, the maths behind population growth and compound interest.

In 11 Plus Maths, pupils study number sequences to recognise patterns, identify missing terms, and understand how rules repeat across sets. These skills strengthen logical thinking and prepare for algebra later.

Key Terms

Sequence: A list of numbers that follow a specific rule or pattern.
Term: Each individual number or item in a sequence.
Geometric Sequence: A sequence where each term is multiplied by the same number to get the next one.

Frequently Asked Questions (Click to see answers)

What is a number sequence in maths?

A number sequence is a list of numbers that follow a pattern, such as adding or multiplying by the same amount each time.

What is the difference between arithmetic and geometric sequences?

In an arithmetic sequence, numbers increase by adding the same amount. In a geometric sequence, they increase by multiplying by the same number.

How do you find the next term in a sequence?

Look at how the numbers change from one term to the next, then apply the same rule to find the next number.
