Reply to comment by Chromotron in ELI5-What is the fibonacci sequence? by amsdys

Are Fibonacci numbers different than the golden ratio? Cuz to me with no discerning eye, I find it convincing enough when they show that curve on like acorns and stuff

The golden ratio is obtained by dividing a Fibonacci number by its previous number.

As you do this for larger and larger Fibonacci numbers, you get closer and closer to the golden ratio (phi)
