A library puts 8 books on a display on Monday, 14 on Tuesday and 20 on Wednesday, adding the same number more each day. How many books does it put out on Friday?
A sequence is built by putting each position number through the machine shown. What is the 7th term of that sequence?
A sequence of plot numbers rises by the same amount each time. The 2nd plot is numbered 23 and the 11th is numbered 131. What number is on the 7th plot?
That is 3 of the 140 questions. Every one of the rest is marked the same way, with the worked solution and the mistake behind each wrong answer.

Is this right for your child?
Buy it if
- Your child keeps dropping marks on Sequences specifically
- They have met the topic in class and need it to become automatic
- You want 140 questions on one topic, not three buried in a mixed paper
Skip it if
- They have never been taught Sequences, this tests, it does not teach
- You want broad coverage before the exam, a mixed Maths Pack fits better

This is what every wrong answer gets
Three real questions from the pack, with the explanation exactly as it appears in the mark scheme, one Bronze, one Silver, one Gold.
A water tank holds 90 litres and loses 12 litres every hour. How many litres are left in the tank after 4 hours?
Counting down term by term and multiplying the loss both work; using both is a quick check.
A fence is built in sections. One section uses 7 posts, two sections use 12 posts and three sections use 17 posts. How many posts are needed for 8 sections?
The first section needs an extra post to close the end, which is where the added 2 comes from.
A printing firm charges a setup fee plus the same amount for every copy. Four copies cost £47, nine copies cost £92 and fifteen copies cost £146. How many pounds is the setup fee?
The cost per copy comes from the change between two orders; the setup fee is what is left once the copies are paid for.
Drill the topic until it stops costing marks.
140 questions across 6 timed tests, each with a worked solution. Yours permanently, no subscription.
We check the answers before you have to.
Most 11+ material asks you to take the answer key on trust. Ours is machine-checked and the check is tied to the questions by a content hash, edit a question and the build refuses to produce the pack until it has been verified again. That is a gate in the build, not a promise on a sales page.

FAQs
Which exam is this for?
GL Assessment, FSCE and Quest. The 11+ maths syllabus is national, Sequences is on the syllabus for all of them. What differs is format. Every question here is five-option multiple choice against the clock, which mirrors GL and CEM-style papers directly. If your child sits a written-answer paper such as CSSE in Essex or an independent school's own, use these to build topic fluency and speed, then rehearse setting out working on that school's past papers.
Is this one topic only?
Yes, deliberately. All 140 questions are Sequences, spread across 8 sub-topics, so a weak area gets drilled properly rather than meeting three questions on it in a mixed paper.
Do I need to install anything?
No. It's a link that opens in the browser on a laptop, tablet or school Chromebook. The PDF is a normal download.
How long do I have access?
Permanently. It's a one-off purchase, not a subscription, and the PDF is yours to keep and reprint.
