1 + 1/2

Option
(a)8/5
(b)5/8
(c)1/2
(d)3/2

Read Solution (Total 3)

proceed from last
1+ 1/2 =3/2
1+ 1/(1+1/2)= 1+ 2/3 =5/3

1+3/5=8/5
1/(8/5)= 5/8

solve it from last...
1+1/2=3/2
1+ 1/(3/2)=1+2/3=5/3
1+ 1/(5/3)=1+3/5=8/5
1/(8/5)=5/8.

it is 5/8 as 1+1/2 = 3/2
then 1 +1/(3/2)=5/3
then 1 +1/(5/3)=8/5
and 1/(8/5)= 5/8
