Grade 5 Numerical Patterns and Graphing Practice Test

Build Grade 5 Math skills with five 10-question practice tests on numerical patterns, rules, input-output tables, comparing patterns, and graphing ordered pairs.

Numerical Patterns and Graphing Practice Tests

These Grade 5 Math practice tests help students identify rules in numerical patterns, generate terms, complete input-output tables, compare two patterns, and graph relationships with ordered pairs.

Skills covered

  • Finding the rule in an increasing or decreasing pattern
  • Generating missing and later terms
  • Using input-output tables and simple equations
  • Comparing corresponding terms in two patterns
  • Writing ordered pairs as (x, y)
  • Graphing and interpreting pattern relationships

How to use these practice tests

Compare consecutive terms first. Decide whether the pattern adds, subtracts, multiplies, or follows an input-output rule. For graphs, use the input as x and the output as y, then write each point in the order (x, y).

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: A

The correct answer is Each term in B is 1 greater than the term in A..

  1. Read the pattern: Compare consecutive terms or input-output pairs to find what changes each time.
  2. Apply the rule: Compare matching positions: 2 is 1 more than 1, 4 is 1 more than 3, and so on.
  3. Check the choice: The correct choice is Each term in B is 1 greater than the term in A..

Compare matching positions: 2 is 1 more than 1, 4 is 1 more than 3, and so on.

2. QuestionMultiple choice

Pattern A is 5,10,155, 10, 15 and Pattern B is 5,15,255, 15, 25. What is the third term of Pattern B?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: B

The correct answer is 25.

  1. Read the pattern: Compare consecutive terms or input-output pairs to find what changes each time.
  2. Apply the rule: Pattern B adds 10 each time, so its terms are 5, 15, 25.
  3. Check the choice: The correct choice is 25.

Pattern B adds 10 each time, so its terms are 5, 15, 25.

3. QuestionMultiple choice

Pattern A is 2,5,82, 5, 8 and Pattern B is 4,7,104, 7, 10. What do the patterns have in common?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: C

The correct answer is Both patterns add 3 each time..

  1. Read the pattern: Compare consecutive terms or input-output pairs to find what changes each time.
  2. Apply the rule: The differences in both lists are 3.
  3. Check the choice: The correct choice is Both patterns add 3 each time..

The differences in both lists are 3.

4. QuestionMultiple choice

Pattern A is 10,20,3010, 20, 30 and Pattern B is 10,30,5010, 30, 50. What is the third-term difference, B minus A?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: D

The correct answer is 20.

  1. Read the pattern: Compare consecutive terms or input-output pairs to find what changes each time.
  2. Apply the rule: The third terms are 50 and 30, so 50 − 30 = 20.
  3. Check the choice: The correct choice is 20.

The third terms are 50 and 30, so 50 − 30 = 20.

5. QuestionMultiple choice

Pattern A is 3,6,93, 6, 9 and Pattern B is 6,12,186, 12, 18. How are corresponding terms related?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: A

The correct answer is Each term in B is twice the term in A..

  1. Read the pattern: Compare consecutive terms or input-output pairs to find what changes each time.
  2. Apply the rule: Pattern B doubles every corresponding term: 2 × 3 = 6 and 2 × 9 = 18.
  3. Check the choice: The correct choice is Each term in B is twice the term in A..

Pattern B doubles every corresponding term: 2 × 3 = 6 and 2 × 9 = 18.

6. QuestionMultiple choice

Pattern A is 4,8,124, 8, 12 and Pattern B is 7,14,217, 14, 21. What is the rule for Pattern B?

Please select an answer first.

Correct answer: B

The correct answer is Add 7 each time.

  1. Read the pattern: Compare consecutive terms or input-output pairs to find what changes each time.
  2. Apply the rule: Pattern B increases by 7 from 7 to 14 and from 14 to 21.
  3. Check the choice: The correct choice is Add 7 each time.

Pattern B increases by 7 from 7 to 14 and from 14 to 21.

Frequently asked questions about Grade 5 Numerical Patterns and Graphing

How do you find the rule in a numerical pattern?

Compare consecutive terms to see whether the pattern adds, subtracts, multiplies, or follows another consistent relationship.

How are input-output pairs written on a graph?

Write the input as x and the output as y, then record the point as (x, y).
