Question of the Day

Answer today's ISEE Middle Level Mathematics Achievement question, reveal the full explanation, then keep the streak going with a new question every day.

If the pattern continues, what is the next fraction in the sequence? $\frac{1}{2}, \frac{3}{5}, \frac{5}{8}, \frac{7}{11}, ...$

$\frac{8}{14}$
$\frac{9}{13}$
$\frac{9}{14}$ (correct answer)
$\frac{11}{14}$

Explanation: There are two separate patterns for the numerators and the denominators. The numerators are 1, 3, 5, 7, ... which are consecutive odd numbers. The next numerator will be 9. The denominators are 2, 5, 8, 11, ... which form an arithmetic sequence with a common difference of 3. The next denominator will be $11 + 3 = 14$ . Therefore, the next fraction in the sequence is $\frac{9}{14}$ .
