What is the Fibonacci sequence? How do we get these numbers? 1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34,55,89,144,233,377,610,9 87,1597,2584,4181,6765,10946,17711,28657,46368,75025,121393,196418,317811,514229,832040,1346269,2178309,3524578,5702887, 9227465,14930352,24157817,39088169... Add the first number to the number before it (0+1=1, 1+1=2, 2+1=3…) nowadays we use computer programs to generate large Fibonacci numbers How do we get these numbers? 1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34,55,89,144,233,377,610,9 87,1597,2584,4181,6765,10946,17711,28657,46368,75025,121393,196418,317811,514229,832040,1346269,2178309,3524578,5702887, 9227465,14930352,24157817,39088169...

What is the Golden Ratio? 1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34,55… F1 = 1, F2 = 1, F3 = 2… To find the Golden Ratio we divide Fn/Fn+1 = 5/8 = 1.5, 8/13 = 1.625 1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34,55… F1 = 1, F2 = 1, F3 = 2… To find the Golden Ratio we divide Fn/Fn+1 = 5/8 = 1.5, 8/13 = 1.625
