Answer:

The next two terms of the following sequence is 5/36 and 6/49.

Explanation:

The pattern in this sequence is that the numerators of the sequence are all positive integers that increase by 1, so I added 1 to each preceding numerator. The denominators of the sequence are consecutive perfect squares (e.g., 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, etc.), so I made each following denominator the next perfect square.

Answer:


(5)/(36) , (6)/(49)

Explanation:

The numerator of these terms is increasing by 1

The denominator is being squared... Look at this

The denominator of the first term is 2² which equals 4

the next denominator is 3² = 9

the next 4² = 16

the next 5² = 25

so, what what's next?

6² = 36 and 7² = 49

Hope I helped! :)
