Answer:

an = (n+3)/(n+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The sequence can be written as ...

4/2, 5/3, 6/4, 7/5, 8/6, ...

where the first numerator is n+3 and the first denominator is n+1. Each numerator and denominator increase by 1 from term to term, so the explicit formula can be written

an = (n+3)/(n+1)

Find the product or quotient for each. simple form<br> 5/9 divide 5/6

MakcuM [25]

Answer: 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

5/9 and 5/6 doesn't have the same denominator. So 5/9 changes to 10/18, while 5/6 changes to 15/18.

10/18 divided by 15/18= 10/18 x 18/15 = 180/270

180/270= 2/3
