Find the nth term of 1,4,9, i need the method as well ! 15points!

The term is a(n) = (n+1)^2

proof:
1^ = 1
2^2 = 4
3^2 = 9
4^2 =16
5^2 = 25 and so on

First of all, if you look closely, the sequence is made up of perfect squares!

1 (1²), 4 (2²), 9 (3²), etc. 

So to find out whatever term you want, simply follow this formula!

(Let n represent the term)

Let's say you want to find the 15th term:

       n term = n²
(15th) term = (15)²
(15th) term = 225

Ta-da!

Or if you want to find the 305th term:

       n term = n²
(305th) term = (305)²
(305th) term = 93025

Hope this helps!

If there are four friends then each would get, 1.25 or 1 1/4. so this is how i solved 5 ÷ 4 = 1.25 . hope this ; )

Um what? rephrase that ?
