Sarah is arranging the tiles as shown below, if she continues it the same way, how many tiles will be there in the next column of yellow tiles?
Answer:
7
- We observe from the pattern of the tiles that the colors yellow and grey are alternating. Also, the number of tiles is increasing by 1.
- Therefore, the next column will have 6 tiles and the color of the tiles will be grey.
The column after that will have 7 tiles and the color of the tiles will be yellow.
Hence, there will be 7 tiles in the next column of yellow tiles.
