Title: Pascal's triangle Post by Christine on Sep 9th, 2013, 11:32am A073617 a(n) = product of terms at +45 degrees slope with the horizontal. 1, 1, 1, 2, 3, 12, 30, 240, 1050, 16800, 132300, 4233600, 61122600, 3911846400, 104886381600, 13425456844800, 674943865596000, 172785629592576000, 16407885372638760000, 8400837310791045120000, 1515727634953623371280000 http://oeis.org/A073617 Taking sets of 4 consecutive terms, then the product of the 1-st and 4-th divided by the product of the 2-nd and 3-rd 1, 1, 1, 2 (1*2)/(1*1) = 2 1, 1, 2, 3 (1*3)/(1*2) = 3/2 = 1.5 1, 2, 3, 12 (1*12)/(2*3) = 2 2, 3, 12, 30 (2*30)/(3*12) = 5/3 = 1.666.. 3, 12, 30, 240 (3*240)/(12*30) = 2 when starting with an even indexed row the ratio is 2 Will the ratio always be 2? with odd indexed row, the ratios are 1.5 1.666.. 1.75 1.8 1.83333... 1.857142... 1.875 1.88888... 1.90 Will the ratio reach 2 ? |
