Then add 3: 3 + 3 = 6
Then add 4: 6 + 4 = 10 and so on.

(f) 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49,…..


Squares (number multiplied by itself) of counting numbers.
1st number = 1 × 1 = 1
2nd number = 2 × 2 = 4
3rd number = 3 × 3 = 9
4th number = 4 × 4 = 16 and so on.

(g) 1, 8, 27, 64, 125, 216,……

3rd number = 2nd number + 1st number = 2 + 1 = 3
4th number = 3rd number + 2nd number = 3 + 2 = 5
5th number = 4th number + 3rd number = 5 + 3 = 8
6th number = 5th number + 4th number = 8 + 5 = 13 and so on.
Starting from the 3rd every number is the sum of two previous numbers.

(i) 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64,……
