Question

Look for a pattern and predict the next two numbers in the sequence: 1, 1/8, 1/15, 1/22.

a) 1/30, 1/37
b) 1/29, 1/36
c) 1/29, 1/37
d) 1/30, 1/36

Answer 1

The next two numbers in the sequence are 5/7 and 4/7.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sequence 1, 1/8, 1/15, 1/22 follows the pattern of subtracting 1/7 from each term. Starting from 1, the next term is 1 - 1/7 = 6/7. Following the pattern, the next two terms would be 6/7 - 1/7 = 5/7 and 5/7 - 1/7 = 4/7. Therefore, the next two numbers in the sequence are 5/7 and 4/7.
