1 The Following Fractions Produce Better And Better Approximations To 2 1 3 7 17 41 1 2 5 12 29 If A B Is On Th 1 (42.52 KiB) Viewed 48 times
1. The following fractions produce better and better approximations to √√/2: 1 3 7 17 41 1' 2' 5' 12' 29 If a/b is on this list, then the next fraction is (a+2b)/(a+b). Find the first fraction on this list such that when it is used as a rational approximation to √2, the absolute value of the relative error is less than 10-5. Hint: be sure to distinguish error and relative error.
