41 Fibonacci Numbers Rabbits The original problem that Fibonacci investigated, in the year 1202, was about how fast rabbits could breed in ideal circumstances. "A pair of rabbits, one month old, is too young to reproduce. Suppose that in their second month, and every month thereafter, they produce a new pair. If each new pair of rabbits does the same, and none of the rabbits dies, how many pairs of rabbits will there be at the beginning of each month?"
42 At the end of Month 1 At the end of Month pair of new born rabbits 2. One pair mates At the end of Month pair of new born rabbits 2. 2 pair mate Fibonacci Numbers Rabbits 1. NO new borns (the rabbits are too young) 2. They mate At the end of Month pair of new born rabbits 2. 3 pair mate At the end of Month pair of new born rabbits 2. 5 pair mate At the end of Month pair of new born rabbits 2. 8 pair mate R1 R2 R1 R2 r3 r4 R1 R2 R3 R4 r5 r6 1 Pair 2 Pair R1 R2 R3 R4 R5 R6 r7 r8 r9 r10 3 Pair 5 Pair R1 R2 R3 R4 R5 R6 R7 R8 R9 R10 r11 r12 r13 r14 r15 r16 R1 R2 R3 R4 R5 R6 R7 R8 R9 R10 R11 R12 R13 R14 R15 R16 r17 r18 r19 r20 r21 r22 r23 r24 r25 r26 8 Pair 13 Pair
43 Fibonacci Numbers MathMagic Trick 1. Pick any two integers greater than 0 and less than 5 2. Using these two values, generate a Fibonacci Sequence of 10 elements 3. Sum the 10 elements (and keep to yourself) Example: Select 2 and 4 as the two integers The Fibonacci Sequence is 2,4,6,10,16,26,42,68,110,178 The sum is 462 The Trick: Given a some or all of the numbers in the generated sequence, I will immediately tell you the sum!
