anonymous · Answer

64/4=16
16/4=4
4/4=1

So the first one is division

anonymous · Answer

and the 2nd?

anonymous · Answer

I am thinking, the second one is tricky... hold on.

espex · Answer

Look at the pattern, in one you have a term that plays off the product of the two before it and the other is the sum.

anonymous · Answer

I can't figure out the second one. :/ sorry

espex · Answer

In the second one, what relationship can you find with the first three terms?

anonymous · Answer

For the second one, you add the preceding two terms to get the next term. 
3+7=10
7+10=17....

anonymous · Answer

So it's addition.
