Complete the following table, using the instructions from the previous page. One row
has been done for you.

2 [1,1], [2] 2
3 [ 1,1,1], [1,2], [2,1] 3
4 [1,1,1,1], [1,2,1,], [1,1,2,], [2,1,1], [2,2] 5
5 [1,1,1,1,1], [1,2,1,1], [1,1,2,1], [1,1,1,2], [2,1,1,1], 8
[1,2,2], [2,1,2], [2,2,1]

Now, try to find a pattern formed by the numbers in the third column. Describe the
pattern you observed.

➢ In the third column the pattern that I observed when you add the two previous
term the result will be the next term. The pattern that was formed are 1, 2, 3, 5, 8,
13, 21… was a sequence which is a Fibonacci sequence.

Without listing all the trains of length 8, how many trains of length 8 can be formed
based on the pattern you observed? Answer: 34
