Write the first five terms of the sequen | Class 11 Mathematics Chapter Sequence and Series, Sequence and Series NCERT Solutions

Question: Write the first five terms of the sequences whose nth term is \begin{align} a_n = \frac {n}{n+1}\end{align}
Answer:

\begin{align} a_n = \frac {n}{n+1}\end{align}

Substituting n = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, we obtain

\begin{align} a_1 = \frac {1}{1+1}=\frac{1}{2},a_2 = \frac {2}{2+1}=\frac{2}{3},a_3 = \frac {3}{3+1}=\frac{3}{4},a_4 = \frac {4}{4+1}=\frac{4}{5},a_5 = \frac {5}{5+1}=\frac{5}{6}\end{align}

Therefore, the required terms are

\begin{align} \frac{1}{2},\frac{2}{3},\frac{3}{4},\frac{4}{5},and \frac{5}{6}\end{align}
