This is common. You can study more maths and read some books about maths such as Concrete Mathematics and so on...

  1. Set a base case: Solve your first induction problem. Perhaps prove the formula for the sum of numbers from $$$1$$$ to $$$n$$$.
  2. Create your induction hypothesis: Assume that you've solved $$$k$$$ problems so far.
  3. Induct: Solve your $$$(k+1)^\text{th}$$$ problem.

Therefore you can solve as many problems as you want!

To improve in some topic you shouldn't create new accounts and should start practicing.
