The number of segments required to form n of each digits shown above are 5n + 1, 3n + 1 and 5n + 2

When n = 5

\\5n + 1 = 5 \times 5 + 1 = 26 \\3n + 1 = 3 \times 5 + 1 = 16 \\5n + 2 = 5 \times 5 + 2 = 27

When n = 10

\\5n + 1 = 5 \times 10 + 1 = 51 \\3n + 1 = 3 \times 10+ 1 = 31 \\5n + 2 = 5 \times 10 + 2 = 52

When n = 100

 

\\5n + 1 = 5 \times 100 + 1 = 501 \\3n + 1 = 3 \times 100+ 1 = 301 \\5n + 2 = 5 \times 100 + 2 = 502
