Q: prove that for each $m \geq 2$, $|w_{m+1}-w_m| \leq (2/3)^{2(m-1)}|w_2 - w_1|$

user6259845If a sequence is given by $S_{n+1}=S_n + S_{n-1}$ where $S_1=1$ and $S_2=2$ and we let $w_n=S_n/S_{n-1}$ for all $n \geq 2$. I trying to prove that for each $m \geq 2$, $|w_{m+1}-w_m| \leq (2/3)^{2(m-1)}|w_2 - w_1|$, but I don't understand how. I think I need to start with $|w_{m+1}-w_m| =$ so...
