- 1, 1/2, 3/2, 2, 5, 1/3, 16/3, 15, 12, 1/4, 49/4,......
(1, 1/2, 3/2, 2),( 5, 1/3, 16/3, 15),( 12, 1/4, 49/4,...)
1st+2nd=3rd & 1st/2nd=4th
1+ 1/2 = 3/2 & 1/(1/2) =2
5+ 1/3 = 16/3 & 5/(1/3) =15
12+ 1/4= 49/4 & 12/(1/4)= 48
ans: 48 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(60) No(0)
- ans ....48

- 1,1/2,3/2,2=(3-1) from the given fraction..similarly applied for (16/3,15=(16-1)),(49/4,48=(49-1)..so ans is 48.

- 1, 1/2, 3/2, 2, 5, 1/3, 16/3, 15, 12, 1/4, 49/4,
(1, 1/2, 3/2) 2( 5, 1/3, 16/3) 15( 12, 1/4, 49/4) x
1st/2nd= 4th
1/(1/2) =2
5/(1/3) =15
12/(1/4) =48

- 1, 1/2, 3/2, 2,
5, 1/3, 16/3, 15,
12, 1/4, 49/4
ans:
1*2 = 2
5*3=15
12*4=48
last series is formed by multiply the first number with 2,3,4,5,.....
