The pattern for these problems is to multiply the two bottom numbers and then divide by the top number to get the number inside the triangle. Let BLB_L be the bottom left number, BRB_R be the bottom right number, and TT be the top number. The number inside the box, II, is calculated as: I=(BL×BR)÷TI = (B_L \times B_R) \div T If a bottom number is missing, say BLB_L, the formula can be rearranged to: BL=(I×T)÷BRB_L = (I \times T) \div B_R

  1. For BL=14B_L = 14, BR=3B_R = 3, T=6T = 6: I=(14×3)÷6I = (14 \times 3) \div 6 I=42÷6I = 42 \div 6 I=7I = \boxed{\text{7}} Your calculation and answer are correct.

  2. For BL=5B_L = 5, BR=1B_R = 1, T=20T = 20: I=(5×1)÷20I = (5 \times 1) \div 20 I=5÷20I = 5 \div 20 I=14I = \boxed{\frac{1}{4}} Your calculation and answer are incorrect.

  3. For I=21I = 21, BR=7B_R = 7, T=3T = 3 (finding BLB_L): BL=(21×3)÷7B_L = (21 \times 3) \div 7 BL=63÷7B_L = 63 \div 7 BL=9B_L = \boxed{\text{9}} Your calculation and answer are correct.

  4. For I=12I = \frac{1}{2}, BR=8B_R = 8, T=2T = 2 (finding BLB_L): BL=(12×2)÷8B_L = \left(\frac{1}{2} \times 2\right) \div 8 BL=1÷8B_L = 1 \div 8 BL=18B_L = \boxed{\frac{1}{8}} Your work is incomplete.

  5. For BL=4B_L = 4, BR=4B_R = 4, T=2T = 2: I=(4×4)÷2I = (4 \times 4) \div 2 I=16÷2I = 16 \div 2 I=8I = \boxed{\text{8}} Your calculation is correct, but the answer is not filled in.

  6. For BL=4B_L = 4, BR=2B_R = 2, T=10T = 10: I=(4×2)÷10I = (4 \times 2) \div 10 I=8÷10I = 8 \div 10 I=45I = \boxed{\frac{4}{5}} Your calculation is incorrect.

  7. For BL=13B_L = \frac{1}{3}, BR=27B_R = 27, T=3T = 3: I=(13×27)÷3I = \left(\frac{1}{3} \times 27\right) \div 3 I=9÷3I = 9 \div 3 I=3I = \boxed{\text{3}} Your calculation is incorrect.

  8. For I=6I = 6, BR=12B_R = 12, T=16T = 16 (finding BLB_L): BL=(6×16)÷12B_L = (6 \times 16) \div 12 BL=96÷12B_L = 96 \div 12 BL=8B_L = \boxed{\text{8}} Your calculation is correct, but the answer is not filled in.

  9. For BL=13B_L = 13, BR=5B_R = 5, T=13T = 13: I=(13×5)÷13I = (13 \times 5) \div 13 I=65÷13I = 65 \div 13 I=5I = \boxed{\text{5}} Your calculation is correct, but the answer is not filled in.

  10. For BL=12B_L = \frac{1}{2}, BR=4B_R = 4, T=2T = 2: I=(12×4)÷2I = \left(\frac{1}{2} \times 4\right) \div 2 I=2÷2I = 2 \div 2 I=1I = \boxed{\text{1}} Your calculation is correct, but the answer is not filled in.
