Month Number of Travelers March 217 April 232 May 252 June 277 July 307 August ? If the Happy Home Motel continues to follow this pattern, how many travelers will stay during August?

Answer 1

Answer:

342

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's see the difference is each successive values:

232 - 217 = 15

252 - 232 = 20

277 - 252 = 25

307 - 277 = 30

As we can see, each month the increase is 5 more than previous months' increase. Clearly from the pattern we can surmise that the next month (August), it will increase by 35 from the value of July.

Number of visitors in August = Number of Visitors in  July + 35 = 307 + 35 = 342
