Q. At a birthday party, the first child receives 1212 smiley stickers, the second child receives 1818 smiley stickers, the third child receives 2424 smiley stickers, and the fourth child receives 3030 smiley stickers. If this pattern continues, how many smiley stickers will the fifth child receive?\newline___________\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ smiley stickers
  1. Identify pattern in stickers: Step 11: Identify the pattern in the number of stickers received by each child.\newlineFirst child: 1212 stickers,\newlineSecond child: 1818 stickers,\newlineThird child: 2424 stickers,\newlineFourth child: 3030 stickers.\newlineThe difference between each is 66 stickers (18−1218-12, 24−1824-18, 30−2430-24).
  2. Calculate fifth child's stickers: Step 22: Calculate the number of stickers for the fifth child using the pattern.\newlineFourth child received 3030 stickers; adding the difference of 66:\newline30+6=3630 + 6 = 36 stickers.
