HOW TO COUNT
WB Math Group
DON’T WE KNOW HOW TO COUNT
ALREADY?
Not Really…
•Ancient people could only count to three
•But they know how to compare numbers that
are larger than three
•How to count huge numbers? Can’t use your
fingers!
•How to count tricky numbers?
•Even majority of the adults don’t know how to
count certain things

ARITHMETIC SEQUENCE
An arithmetic (or linear) sequence is a sequence of numbers in
which each new term is calculated by adding a constant value
to the previous term
•2, 6, 10, 14, 18, 22, …
•-5, -3, -1, 1, 3, 5 …
•-1, 10, 21, 32, …

GEOMETRIC SEQUENCE
A geometric sequence is a sequence
of numbers in which each new term
(except for the first term) is
calculated by multiplying the
previous term by a constant value.
•1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128
•1, 10, 100, 1000, 10000,
