My teacher has set us a project, but i am having trouble finding the nth term for this. |
Hello.
1 x 2 = 2
2 x 3 = ?
? x 4 = ...

Dinky,
Do you see how each term is constructed from the previous term?
second term 2 = 2 1
third term 6 = 3 fourth term 24 = 4 fifth term 120 = 5
Or expanding this becomes
second term 2 = 2 third term 6 = 3 fourth term 24 = 4 fifth term 120 = 5
Now can you write the nth term?
