Is this a homework problem? If so, you need to show what you have tried to do to solve it.
 
Also, please refer to the homework section in the forums for more info on posting homework problems.

This is pretty basic fractions. You can figure this out with very little effort.
 
(Thread moved to HH,Pre-Calc & OP pinged).
 
This is a simple arithmetic sequence.
Can you find the common difference? :)
