You can put this solution on YOUR website!
\n" ); document.write( "In ANY problem like this, it is impossible to know the \"right\" answer.
\n" ); document.write( "You could put any numbers next and it would be a valid sequence.
\n" ); document.write( "Unless a problem like this says something about what kind of sequence it is, finding \"the\" solution is purely a matter of guessing.
\n" ); document.write( "So any problem like this is not a valid question.
\n" ); document.write( "If you can see a logical pattern in the given numbers, then it is possible to GUESS what the answer is. But it is impossible to know if that answer is \"right\".
\n" ); document.write( "In this example, a probable solution can be found by rewriting some of the fractions as equivalent fractions:
\n" ); document.write( "7/8, 6/9, 5/10, 4/11, 3/12, ...
\n" ); document.write( "Then continuing the pattern gives us
\n" ); document.write( "7/8, 6/9, 5/10, 4/11, 3/12, 2/13, 1/14
\n" ); document.write( "Still, despite the clear pattern, we can't KNOW that this is the answer.... \n" ); document.write( "
