Answer:

B .
(3 n)/(n+3)

Explanation:

Arithmetic sequence:-

Step1:

Given sequence is
(3)/(4) ,(6)/(5) ,(9)/(6) ,(12)/(7) ,(15)/(8)

Above sequence taking numerator terms

3,6,9,12,15 are in arithmetic progression

First term a= 3 and difference d = 3

now n t h term of given sequence is


t_(n) =a+(n-1)d

now substitute a =3 and d=3


t_(n) = 3+(n-1)3 = 3+3 n-3=3n

Step2:-

Above sequence taking denominator

4,5,6,7,8...

here a=4 and d=1


t_(n) =a+(n-1)d


t_(n) =4+(n-1)1


t_(n)=3+n

Final answer is the general term of given sequence is


t_(n) = (3n)/(3+n)
