There are 9 holes in the first circle and 12 in the next. 

1) How does the pattern continue? (Try to figure out an answer before counting the holes in the picture)

2) Figure out the total number of holes without counting them? How did you decide on your answer?

REMEMBER TO SHOW AND EXPLAIN ALL OF YOUR WORKING OUT SO I CAN SEE HOW YOU CAME UP WITH YOUR ANSWERS. YOU MAY DRAW DIAGRAMS AND UPLOAD THEM TO HELP EXPLAIN YOUR THINKING IF YOU WISH.
