How do you get each number in the fibonacci sequence?In: Math, Famous People |

Answer
The Fibonacci sequence is a series of sums of two counting numbers and it starts with the lowest two, namely 0 and 1. Each successive number in the sequence is the sum of the two preceding it. Like this:
first # 0
second 1
0 + 1 = 1
1 + 1 = 2
1 + 2 = 3
2 + 3 = 5
3 + 5 = 8
I think you've got the idea by now. So the first 15 numbers in the sequence would be:
0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144, 253, 397, etc.
