document.write( "Yes, you are correct, but that last term of the sequence\r\n" );
document.write( "\"0.5%2F729\" should be simplified so that the numerator\r\n" );
document.write( "will be an integer. 0.5 needs to be multiplied by 2 to\r\n" );
document.write( "get the integer 1.  So multiply the term by \"2%2F2\"\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\"0.5%2F729\"\"%22%D7%22\"\"2%2F2\"\"%22%22=%22%22\"\"1%2F1458%29\"\r\n" );
