series, JMO

The following number is formed by a special pattern and is the only 
one of its kind: 8549176320. 
What is the pattern?
 

Look and say sequence

The series given below is called the "look - and - say" sequence.
 
1, 11, 21, 1211, 111221, 312211, 13112221, 1113213211, ... 
To generate a member of the sequence from the previous member, one must read  the digits of the previous member, thus:
  • 1 is to be  read as "one 1" or 11.
  • 11 is to be  read as "two 1s" or 21.
  • 21 is to be  read as "one 2, then one 1" or 1211.
  • 1211 is to be  read as "one 1, then one 2, then two 1s" or 111221.
  • 111221 is to be  read as "three 1s, then two 2s, then one 1" or 312211

series problems for STD V and STD VI

Questions on the application of the formulae:

For S = 1 + 2 + 3 + .....n terms = i.e. sum of natural numbers from 1 to n.
S = n (n+1)/2


  1. S = ( 1 + 3 + 5 + ... 25 terms) + ( 2 + 4 + 6 ..... 25 terms)
  2. S = (3 + 6 + 9 ...... 25 terms)
  3. S = ( 2 + 4 + 6 + ...... 25 terms)
  4. S = (1 - 1/5) + (1 - 2/5) + (1 - 3/5) + (1 - 4/5) + ..... 25 terms
  5. S = (1 - 1/n) + (1 - 2/n) + (1 - 3/n) +........ n terms
  6. S = (2a - 3b) + (4a - 6b) + (6a - 9b) +.......... 25 terms, given a = 5 and b = 2

series



Fill in the missing numbers:

1,2,6, 24, -------




Answer:

1                              2                              6                              24                           -----

                              1x 2                        1x2x3                    1x2x3x4                1x2x3x4x5

Therefore, answer = 120

series



Fill in the missing numbers:

5,11, 17,----33, 43





Answer:

5                              11                           17                   ----                         33                           43

        (5 + 17) / 2 = 11                                 (11+ x)/2 = 17        (23 + 43)/2 = 33
                                                                       x = 23                                                   
Therefore, 23  Answer

series



Fill in the missing numbers:
1,2,6,24,-----




Answer:

1                              2                              6                              24                           ----                        

1x2                         2x3                         6x4                         24x5

Therefore,  24 x 5 = 120  Answer

series



Fill in the missing numbers:
2,7, --------, 23, 34, 47





Answer:

2                              7                              -----                        23                           34                           47

5                              7                              9                              11                           13 (47 – 34)

Therefore,  7 + 7 = 14  Answer

series



Fill in the missing numbers:
4, ------, 20, 37, 60, 89






Answer:

4                              ----                         20                           37                           60                           89

5                              11                           17                           23                           29

                6                              6                              6                              6

Therefore,  4 + 5 = 9  Answer
