64. The numbers are the squares of consecutive integers. 8 2 = 64. 35. Subtract 1 less than the integer subtracted from the previous integer. 13 . Add 2 to the numerator and denominator. 15 6 . Add 1 to the numerator and denominator. 7 –13. Use the pattern of adding 5, then subtracting 10 to obtain the next pair of numbers. 21. Subtract 8 from 5, add 12 to –3, subtract 16 from 9, add 20 to –7, etc., increasing the amount by 4 each time while alternating between adding and subtracting. Each image has a smaller square inside a larger square. The smaller square moves to a new position in a counterclockwise direction. The next figure is shown.
