Verified Answer :

With the Fibonacci Sequence, we keep adding the 2 previous numbers
1
+1
=2

then
1
+2
=3

2 +
3
=5

And we can continue



8



13



21



34



55



89



144



233



377





If we take a Fibonacci number and divide it by the PREVIOUS Fibonacci number (For example 377 / 233) we get:



1.61802575107296





This is something known as the phi ratio, which equals (1 + sq root(5)) / 2
or



1.6180339887499

The further we carry out the Fibonacci sequence, the closer the division of (Fibonnaci Number "n") /(Fibonnaci Number "n-1") gets to be
(1 + sq root(5)) / 2
So, I would say that F52 / F51 would  equal 1.6180339887499 or be very close to it.
