7/22
top number is always increased by 1, bottom number - 1 + 1 = 2, 2 +2 = 4, 4 + 3 =7, 7 + 4 = 11, 11 + 5 = 16, 16 + 6 = 22

7/22.
Look for a pattern in the sequence. The top number (the numerator) always increases by 1. Hence the numerator of the next number in the sequence is 7. The bottom number (the denominator) increases by 1 the first time, 2 the second time, 3 the third time, etc. So the next denominator in the sequence has to be 6 greater than the previous one. 16 + 6 = 22. So the next fraction in the sequence is 7/22.

For the sequence
1/1, 2/2, 3/4, 4/7, 5/11, 6/16, ...
The numerator increases by 1 each time
The denominator increases by 1, 2, 3, etc.
So the sequence continues
1/1, 2/2, 3/4, 4/7, 5/11, 6/16, 7/22, 8/29, etc
After the first two terms,
The nth term in the sequence = n / {(n-1)n/2 + 1}
For example,
The third term = 3 / {2*3/2 + 1} = 3 / {6/2 + 1} = 3/4

7/22.
What you do is you add +1 everytime to the top one, and then, you add 1 more than you do to begin with. For this one, you added +6
These arent fractions, just what you do to get the answer.
+1/1, +1/2 +1/3 +1/4 +1/5 +1/6...and so on

For position number N in the sequence:
Numerator of fraction = N
Denominator of fraction = (N * (N - 1) / 2) + 1
The next position is N = 7
so the numerator is 7
denominator is (7 * (7-1) / 2) + 1 = 22
Next item in the sequence is 7 / 22

7/22 cuz 1 first than 2 than 3 than 4 tha 5 than 6 then it will be seven at the front at the back it you add some

the numerator just goes up by one so the numerator would be 7. The denominator first goes up by 1 then 2 then 3 and so on. So it would go up 6 from the last one you listed. In the end you would get 7/22

This would be a sequence problem. The numerators are going by ones. Th denominator are doing the following:1,2,3,4,5, so adding six to 16 would be 22 and adding one to six would 7 in the numerator. The answer goes as follows:
7/22
I hope this helps!
