Answer:
The correct answer is B. The square root of 36.
Explanation:
If you figure out the square roots of the numbers, you will see the pattern's sequence is simply decreasing by 1 from 10. For the first number, the square root of 100 is 10, because 10 squared or 10 x 10 is equal to 100. After 9, we have the square root of 64 which is 8, and 8 squared or 8 x 8 = 64. Then after 7, it would be the square root of 36 which is 6, because 6 squared or 6 x 6 = 36. Having the sequence be 10, 9, 8, 7, and then finally 6. Remember when dealing with squaring numbers, it's a number multiplied by itself, and with square roots, you find that number and divided it by the given product to get the exact same number.
