Abstract:

The arithmetic mean of the first n Fibonacci numbers is not an integer for all n. However, for some values of n, it is. In this paper we consider the sequence of integers n for which the average of the first n Fibonacci numbers is an integer. We prove some interesting properties and present two related conjectures.
