Anyone can contribute an answer, even non-tutors.
math
2/9 = 4/18
Put them together,
2/2 , 3/8 , 4/18 , 5/32
Notice that for the numerators :
Term number + 1 = numerator
For the denominators:
First term = 2 = 1 x 2 = 1 x 1 x 2 = 3² x 2
Second term = 8 = 2 x 4 = 2 x 2 x 2 = 2² x 2
Third term = 18 = 3 x 6 = 3 x 3 x 2 = 3² x 2
Fourth term = 32 = 4 x 8 = 4 x 4 x 2 = 4² x 2
It is always a product of 2 and the square of the term number.
So for the nth term,
Numerator = n + 1
Denominator = 2n²
nth term is (n+1)/2n²
This is the Answer for part (ii)
6/(2x5²) = 6/50 = 3/25
7/(2x6²) = 7/72
100/(2x99²)
= 100/19602
= 50/9801
