Answer: 13/6
Step-by-step explanation:
Based upon the previous sequence.
1.there is a constant decrease of two in the numerator
2. There is a constant increase of one in the denominator
to find the fourth number in the sequence I used One of the numbers from the previous to determine the answer.
17/4 — —> then I followed the pattern and determine what fraction 3 was . . before it was converted into a whole number.
which would be 15/5 —> Now considering equations that are written like this also mean division, because in this case division is possible the answer would be 3, which would make the whole number 3 instead of 15/3. considering it was an improper fraction.
____________________________________________________________
Now If 15/5 wasn’t converted into 3, The answer to the sequence would be 13/6. If you follow the pattern like I said before there is a certain amount of increase and decrease so 13/6 will be your answer. The only reason is not a whole number because 13 can’t be divided by six to get a whole number.
