- first divide into three parts
1,1/2,3/2,5........5,1/3,16/3,15...........12,1/4,25/4,????
1,1/2,3/2,2 see first 1 digit and multiply with denominator and that is the result
First :::::;;;;1*2=2
5,1/3,16/3,15 Second:::::5*3=15
12.1/4,25/4,???? Third::;;;::::12*4=48

- multiply the first number with the denominator to get the fourth number
1,1/2,3/2,2 =1*2 =2
5,1/3,16/3,15 = 5*3 =15
12,1/4,25/4 = 12*4 = 48ans - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(1)
