__ and __
__ and __
__ and __
__ and __
what do you notice?

Explanation:

Step1: Find first pair of 6's parts

$1 + 5 = 6$

Step2: Find second pair of 6's parts

$2 + 4 = 6$

Step3: Find third pair of 6's parts

$3 + 3 = 6$

Step4: Find fourth pair (reverse of step2)

$4 + 2 = 6$

Step5: Find fifth pair (reverse of step1)

$5 + 1 = 6$

Step6: Find sixth pair (0 and 6)

$0 + 6 = 6$

Step7: Find seventh pair (reverse of step6)

$6 + 0 = 6$

Step8: Observe pattern of pairs

Each pair is a reverse of another, except $3+3$.

Answer:

  1. 1 and 5
  2. 2 and 4
  3. 3 and 3
  4. 4 and 2
  5. 5 and 1
  6. 0 and 6
  7. 6 and 0

What I notice: The pairs are reverses of each other (e.g., 1&5 and 5&1), and the only pair that is the same forwards and backwards is 3&3. All pairs add up to 6.
