The variable n is what goes 1,2,3,4,... The numerators go 1,2,3,4,... So the numerators of the fractions are represented by the variable n. The denominators go 3,4,5,6,... Each denominator is 2 more than the numerator it is underneath, so the denominators are represented by the variable expression n+2. The nth term is represented by variable quantity an. So we write:Edwin
