The first two are given to you, t_1=2 and t_2=1. Use the recursive formula to get the 3rd term; then use the 2nd and 3rd terms to get the 4th; and so on.

Since the <em>n</em>-th Lucas number is the sum of the previous two Lucas numbers, you have

t_3 = t_2 + t_1 = 1 + 2 = 3

t_4 = t_3 + t_2 = 1 + 3 = 4

t_5 = t_4 + t_3 = 4 + 3 = 7

t_6 = t_5 + t_4 = 7 + 4 = 11

t_7 = t_6 + t_5 = 11 + 7 = 18

t_8 = t_7 + t_6 = 18 + 11 = 29

t_9 = t_8 + t_7 = 29 + 18 = 47

Bezzdna [24]
To make this easy let covert everything using a LCD.

The LCD of 1/4  1/12 and 1/6  is 12. This becomes...

Tom ate 3/12 of the pizza.
Leftover pizza = 9/12.
Slices were 1/12.
X friends got pizza.
Remaining pizza is 2/12.

if each friend got 1 piece(1/12)....
9/12(Leftovers) - 2/12(remaining)  = 7/12

So 7 friends got pizza.
