3/2 = (2^2 - 1^2)/(2*1)

8/3 = (3^2 - 1^2) / (3*1)

247/48 = (16^2 - 3^2) / (16*3)

similarly, take the third option

60433/5928 = (247 ^2 - 24^2) / (247*24)

If number=x/y,
Next number=((2x)^2 -y^2)/2xy
First term=1=1/1
So second term=((2*1)^2- 1^2)/(2*1*1)=3/2=x/y
Third term=((2*3)^2-2^2)/(2*3*2)=32/12=8/3=x/y
Fourth term=((2*8)^2-3^2)/(2*8*3)=247/48=x/y
So 5 th term=((2*247)^2-48^2)/(2*247*48)=241732/23712=60433/5928
