Answer:

Subtract 4

Explanation:

In the number pattern:

[tex]52,48,44,40,36...[/tex]

We subtract the next term from the previous term below:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 48-52=-4 \\ 44-48=-4 \\ 40-44=-4 \end{gathered}[/tex]

We see that each one gives a subtraction of 4.

Therefore, the rule of the pattern is 'Subtract 4'.
