How does Pascal's Triangle work?

• It is used in statistics.

• Each number is the sum of the two numbers directly below it

• Each number is sum of two numbers directly above it. It also results in the binomial theorem.

• Add numbers to get succeeding numbers.

How does the Fibonacci Sequence work?

• It is a sequence of prime numbers.

• It is a series of numbers where each number is the sum of the two preceding ones.

• It counts backwards by threes.

• It is a sequence where you multiply numbers to get the next number in the sequence.

What is a geometric sequence?

• Numbers are added to find succeeding numbers.

• A sequence in which numbers are subtracted to find the next number in the sequence.

• Add the rows above to find the sum.

• Each term is found by multiplying the previous term by a constant.
