2nd term: 2/3
3rd term: 3/4
4th term: 4/5
5th term: 5/6
Think…………….
9th term: 9/10
10th term: 10/11
19th term: 19/20
Think…………….
31st term: 31/32
43rd term: 43/44
58th term: 58/(58+1)
73rd term: 73/(73+1)
Think……………
nth term: n/(n+1)
Similarly, but you may findthis a little easier if you understood the last example:
1st term: 1/3
2nd term: 2/5 = 2/(3+2)
3rd term: 3/7 = 3/(3+2+2)
4th term: 4/((3+2+2+2) = 4/9
5th term: 5/(3 plus FOUR 2`s) = 5/11
9th term: 9/(3+8*2) = 9/19
nth term = n/(3+2(n-1))
= n/(2n+1)
Hope this helps, Twiggy.
for the first one that pattern can be described as n/(n+1)
for the second one it’s a bit more complex. it’s n/(2n+1)
Hope this helps you understand this type of problem better
2nd question: the n”th term = n/(2n+1)
