Fibonacci numbers 2021-08-25
John pose la question :
Make a single column of numbers. Start with two numbers of your choice. The third number is the sum of the previous two, the fourth number is the sum of numbers two and three, and so on until you have ten numbers in the column. Add up all ten numbers. Now, take the seventh number and multiply it by eleven. This product will equal the sum of the ten numbers. The same result will occur regardless of the first two numbers chosen. The question is why does the 7th number multiplied by 11 always equal the sum of the ten numbers?
