1. The 15th and 16th Fibonacci numbers are 610 and 987, respectively.
Divide
the larger of these numbers by the smaller. What do you observe?

- Based on my understanding about the Fibonacci sequence, when we divide the


large number which is 987, by the smaller number 610 we will get a ratio equal to
1.618. I observe that in this part instead of adding the previous number to your
answer to get the next term, we divide both numbers 987 and 610 to get its equal
ratio.

987/610 = 1.618

2. Binet’s Formula states that the nth Fibonacci number

(a) Use Binet’s Formula to find the 29th and 30th Fibonacci numbers.
(b) Use the results of part (a) to find the 31st Fibonacci number
3. In the Fibonacci Sequence: 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233,
377, 610, 987, . Which of these numbers are divisible by 2? 1, 1, 2, 3,
5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233, 377, 610, 987, … The answer is every
third number, and 2 is the third Fibonacci number. How about the
ones divisible by 3? 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233, 377,
610, 987, The answer is every fourth number, and 3 is the fourth
Fibonacci number. Could these be just a coincidence? Examine if
this pattern goes on forever.

- Based on what I’ve learned, the Fibonacci sequence is where we add the sum of
two numbers that precede it. No, it is not a coincidence since it follows a certain
pattern where we could understand more if we’ll go deeper on understanding the
Fibonacci sequence. Some examples are the numbers that are divided by 5, it is
also the 5 number in Fibonacci sequence and any numbers divisible by 5 are the
fifth number also of the Fibonacci sequence. The same goes to all the other
terms of the Fibonacci sequence, so therefore this is not a coincidence but a
pattern that would continue forever as long as it follows the sequence.
