Explanation:

Step1: Analyze Christina's pattern

Christina's rule is "add 3". Starting with 4: \(4, 4 + 3=7,7 + 3 = 10,10+3 = 13,13 + 3=16,16+3 = 19,19+3=22,22 + 3=25,\cdots\). The pattern is \(4,7,10,13,16,19,22,25,\cdots\). It has odd (\(7,13,19,25\cdots\)) and even (\(4,10,16,22\cdots\)) numbers.

Step2: Analyze Greg's pattern

Greg's rule is "add 4". Starting with 4: \(4,4 + 4=8,8+4 = 12,12+4 = 16,16+4=20,20 + 4=24,\cdots\). The pattern is \(4,8,12,16,20,24,\cdots\). All numbers are even.

Answer:

Christina's, 16
