What do you SEE? You see an increasing number of zeros between the decimal point and the last 1. So next would be 1. four zeros 1, then 1. five zeros 1.

1 + 10^(-(n + 1))
1 + 10^(-n - 1)
1 + (1/(10^(n + 1)))
(10^(n + 1) + 1)/(10^(n + 1))
1 + 10^(-1 - 1) = 1 + 10^(-1 + (-1)) = 1 + 10^(-2) = 1 + .01 = 1.01
1 + 10^(-2 - 1) = 1 + 10^(-3) = 1 + .001 = 1.001
1 + 10^(-3 - 1) = 1 + 10^(-4) = 1 + .0001 = 1.0001
The next 2 numbers are
1.00001 and 1.000001
