Question!

Answer 1

@ParthKohli Could you help me?

Answer 2

Do you know fibonacci series?

Answer 3

If \(x\) is the number of leaves on one spiral (the one with less leaves), what is the number of leaves on the other spiral?

Answer 4

That is what I'm trying to figure out, right?

Answer 5

No, that information is in the text.

Answer 6

A fibonacci sequence is where the next term is given by the sum of the previous two terms
0, 1, (1+0),
0,1 , 1, (1+1)
0, 1, 1, 2, (2+1)
0, 1, 1, 2, 3
Can you write more terms of this sequence?

Answer 7

"The number of leaves in the counterclockwise direction is 8 more than in the clockwise direction."

Answer 8

5, 8, 13, 21, 34

Answer 9

But we still don't know how many are in the counterclockwise direction. We just know it's 8 more than the clockwise.

Answer 10

If the clockwise leaf number is \(x\), what is the counterclockwise leaf number?

Answer 11

and also x and x+8 are two consecutive terms of fibonacci sequence
Just look for terms which have a difference of 8?

Answer 12

Still lost, guys

Answer 13

If there were 5 clockwise leaves, how many would there be couterclockwise?

Answer 14

13

Answer 15

@Ashley10116 are you here? in fibonacci sequence look for the terms which have a difference of 8?
It's not 5 and 13!!
