I didn't before, but I figured it out. Let me see if I can explain it:You take the place value (first number = 1, second number = 2, etc), multiply it by itself, and then multiply that by 9. Example: 1x1x9=9, 2x2x9=36, 3x3x9=81, etc.
Very neat problem Nicolle!
lol thats one way but i actually thought multiply the place value by three and square but both work lol.
Yep, both work! LOL! It's funny how people see things differently.Here's one:
...17, 31, 59, 155, 227,...
What's the next number?
try this one. 1
1 1
1 2
1 1 2 1
1 2 2 1 1 1
1 1 2 2 1 3
1 2 2 2 1 1 3 1
1 1 2 3 1 2 3 1 1 1
what's the next set of numbers?
oppppppppppps that one was on the other discussion already1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 233

The next number is 377!
Do you all know about Pascal's triangle? It is pretty fun to do when you are bored and have quite a bit of extra paper sitting around if you are serious about it! It goes like this:1
1,1
1,2,1
1,3,3,1
1,4,6,4,1
1,5,10,10,5,1
1,6,15,20,15,6,1
1,7,21,35,35,21,7,1
1,8,28,56,70,56,28,7,1
1,9,36,84,126,126,84,36,9,1
1,10,45,120,210,252,210,120,45,10,1
It's a pretty simple concept! It works better if you have it in an actual pyramid formation to line up the numbers better.





What pattern in this?
