To go to sleep, oliver counted by 6s starting from 15. thus the first few numbers he named were 15,21,27, the last number he named before he fell asleep was 363. how many numbers did oliver name?

We can use the explicit formula to figure this out.



f(1) means the first term, which is 15.
d represents the common difference, which is 6.

f(n) = 15 + 6(n - 1)
f(n) = 15 + 6n - 6
f(n) = 6n + 9

363 = 6n + 9
Subtract 9 from both sides.
354 = 6n
Divide both sides by 6.
59 = n

Olvier named 59 numbers.

Just tell koda to adjust the number of shapes himself.
