NATURE OF
MATHEMATICS
The emergence of
digital technology has
sparked a monumental
rise in the rate at which
we consume and
produce data
Before the
Internet, it could
take hours to get
several volumes
of resources from
the library for a
research paper.
A B
What is the next figure in the given pattern?
?
What Number Comes Next?
1, 3, 5, 7, 9, ________
Solution:
1, 3, 5, 7, 9, ________
Looking at the given numbers, the sequence is
increasing, with each term being two more
than the previous term: 3 = 1 +2 ; 7 = 5 + 2; 9 +
7 + 2. Therefore, the next term should be 11 =
9 + 2.

This gives the area of the hexagon as 6 3cm 2.
Looking at the figure, there are 3 circles that
could fit inside one hexagon (the whole circle in
the middle, and 6 one-thirds of a circle), which
gives the total area as 3∏ cm 2 . The percentage of
the hexagon’s area covered by circles will be:
Area of the circles 2
X 100% = 3∏ cm X 100% = 90.69%
Area of the hexagon 6 3cm 2
