What is the next number of the following sequence
24, 42, 1/2, 2, 65, 56, 1 1/5, 5/6, 73, 37,?

• Just reverse the numbers nd then divide each digits for every numbers
  
  24
  reverse of 24 --42
  divide first digit by 2nd digit 24 -- > 2/4 --> 1/2
  nd then inverse it 2/1==2
  
  folllow the same for 65
  rev(65) -- 56
  divide 6/5 ---> 1 1/5
  inverse it 5/6
  
  73
  37
  7/3-- 2 1/3
  3/7
  
  so d next terms ll be 2 1/3, 3/7

• Look upon the series carefully
  24, 42, 1/2, 2, 65, 56, 1 1/5, 5/6, 73, 37,?
  
  First no. 24
  reverse of the no. 42(2nd no.)
  divide first digit by 2nd digit 24
  2/4 = 1/2
  & then inverse it 2/1 = 2
  
  similarly
  fifth No. = 65
  reverse = 56
  divide first digit by 2nd digit 65
  6/5 = 1 1/5
  & then inverse it 6/5 to 5/6
  
  again similarly
  ninth no = 73
  reverse = 37
  divide first digit by 2nd digit 73
  7/3 = 2 1/3
  & then inverse it 7/3 to 3/7
  
  so answer will be 2 1/3 and 3/7

• @tejaswi
  
  its not 11/5 ... its 1 1/5(mixed fraction) so 1*5+1/6

• sorry 1 1/5 ( mixed fraction)
  
  so 1*5+1/5= 6/5

• next number in series is 7/3,3//7
  
  here if we see that 24,42 ,1/2,2
  than 2/4=1/2
  4/2=2
  
  similiarly
  
  65,56,6/5,5/6
  
  so here next term is 6/5 and 5/6
  
  
  so on..

• its all reverse and mirror image
  2442
  24-->2/4=1/2
  42-->4/2=2
  .
  .
  7337
  73-->7/3=2 1/3
  37-->3/7=3/7... so the next series is 2 1/3,3/7.

• 24 42, 1/2,2 ---- 1/2 is 2/4 and 2 is 4/2
  65 56, 11/5 5/6 --- straight forward to understand
  by same logic --- 73. 37. 7/3
