A puzzling sequence 2017-12-19
From Alan:
My son has the following sequence to work out the formula for the nth term (and fing 5th and 6th terms) and I have tried a variety of ways but can't help!

1/2, 5/6, 1, 11/10

I have converted all to 15/30, 25/30, 30/30, 33/30 and so think the next two terms are 37/30 and 45/30 but I have no idea how to prove or if I am right!

Any help appreciated.
