Lets just choose the first one, 3 4 and 5. According to the Pythagorean Theorem,
a^2+b^2=c^2
So lets plug in our numbers.
3^2+4^2=c^2
The answer should be 5, but lets make sure.
3*3 = 9
4*4 = 16
9+16=c^2
25 = c^2
Square root both sides so:
5=c
And sure enough 5 is the last number on that list. The order doesn’t matter as long as the value you are trying to find is the c^2.
This is known as: Symmetry
No, because to half something you have to divide by 2 or multiply by .5

Imagine, at the first day you have only one penny. Then tomorrow you have 2 pennies, next day you have 4 (2x2), next day you have 8 (4x2), next day you have 16 (8x2).... and so forth.
It looks like geometric sequence isn't it? (the ratio between the number of pennies that you have from the 2nd day and the 1st day is 2)
So, by using geometric sequence theorem we can total those pennies until day-27
S (total pennies at day-27) = (1)(2^27-1) / 2-1 = 2^26 pennies
So, you have 2^26 pennies.. a big number of pennies huh?=))
{The formula is: S = a( r^n-1) / r-1
Where:
a= the number of pennies that you've got at the 1st day
n= number of days you spent to collect those pennies)
r= the ratio of the number of pennies}
