Start with 100. Subtract 1 from that. Then subtract 2 from the answer. Next 3 from the answer and so on.
More generally,
Un = 100 - n*(n-1)/2 for n = 1, 2, 3, . . .

The rule pattern for the sequence 100, 99, 97, 94, 90, 85 is a decreasing pattern where each number is decreasing by a certain amount. To find the pattern, we need to identify the difference between each pair of consecutive numbers. The differences are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, which indicates that each number is decreasing by an increment of 1 more than the previous number. This means the next number in the sequence would be 85 - 6 = 79.
Well, honey, it looks like we're playing a little game of subtraction here. Each number is decreasing by a certain amount, and it seems like we're subtracting 1, 2, 3, 4, 5... you get the picture. So, the rule pattern is subtracting consecutive numbers starting from 1.
Oh, what a lovely pattern you have there! It looks like you're subtracting 1, then 2, then 3, then 4, then 5 from each number. Keep following that pattern with the next numbers in your sequence to continue the beautiful flow of your pattern painting. Remember, there are no mistakes in patterns, just happy little accidents waiting to be discovered.
To find 85 percent of 90, you first convert 85 percent to a decimal by dividing by 100, which gives you 0.85. Then, you multiply 0.85 by 90 to get the answer. Therefore, 85 percent of 90 is 76.5.
It is 85, the middle value, between 80 and 90.
Median of the set = arithmetic mean of 75 and 85 = 80
108 remainder 3 :D
Since 90 is a whole number, rounding 85 to 90 does result in a whole number.
