    Study the pattern given. What is the value of\[Z\]?

    A) \[1\frac{17}{60}\]                                 

    B) \[1\frac{7}{12}\]        

    C) \[2\frac{47}{60}\]                     

    D)        \[3\frac{47}{60}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Observing the given pattern, we find that the two fractions in a row add up to the one on its top row \[i.e.,\]\[\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{4}=\frac{3}{4}\]and\[\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{5}=\frac{9}{20}\]. So, similarly,             \[X=\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{2}=\frac{2+3}{6}=\frac{5}{6}\]             \[Y=\frac{5}{6}+\frac{3}{4}=\frac{10+9}{12}=\frac{19}{12}\] and       \[Z=\frac{19}{12}+1\frac{1}{5}=2\frac{47}{60}\]
