Here are the solutions to the problems:

1.1) The pattern shows an increasing number of circles in two rows.
Pattern 1: One circle in each row (O O)
Pattern 2: Two circles in each row (OO OO)
Pattern 3: Three circles in each row (OOO OOO)
Pattern 4: Four circles in each row (OOOO OOOO)

Following this pattern, the next two patterns will have five circles in each row, then six circles in each row.
The next two patterns are:
OOOOO OOOOO
OOOOOO OOOOOO

1.2) Calculate the following sums:

1.2.1) 38+28\frac{3}{8} + \frac{2}{8}

  1. Since the denominators are the same, add the numerators.

    38+28=3+28\frac{3}{8} + \frac{2}{8} = \frac{3+2}{8}
  2. Perform the addition in the numerator.

    58\frac{5}{8}

    The sum is:

    58\boxed{\frac{5}{8}}

    1.2.2) 2991−17892991 - 1789

  3. Subtract the numbers.

    2991−1789=12022991 - 1789 = 1202

    The difference is:

    1202\boxed{1202}

    1.3) Mr Zungu bought 345 goats on Monday and 423 goats on Tuesday.

  4. To find the total number of goats, add the number of goats bought on Monday and Tuesday.

    Total goats=345+423\text{Total goats} = 345 + 423
  5. Perform the addition.

    345+423=768345 + 423 = 768

    Mr Zungu bought a total of 768 goats.

    768 goats\boxed{768 \text{ goats}}
