Geocache Description:

Another little puzzle cache for you to solve. I used to love math! Back when it was easy :) This puzzle is dedicated to all those people who aren't so fond of mathematical problems.

The image below is the first six lines of a number pattern. Your task is to work out the next four lines, then answer the questions to get the co-ordinates.


Questions....

A = Number of 3s in the 9th line?
B = Number of 4s in the 10th line?
C = Number of 3's in the 10th line minus the number of 2's in the 8th line?
D = Total number of digits in 7th line?
E = Number of 3's in 9th and 10th line?
F = Number of 2s in the 7th line?
G = Sum of 3's and 1's in 7th line?
H = Sum of the 2's in 10th line?
I = Number of 2's in the 7th line minus the number of 2's in the 9th line?

You will be looking for a 200ml snaplock container hidden in a public park, at ground level. It holds a log etc, but has no room for swaps.
