Proving that $\frac{1}{2}<\frac{2}{3}<\frac{3}{4}<$...$<\frac{n-1}{n}$ In an attempt to find a pattern, I did this:
Let a,b,c,d be non-zero consecutive numbers. Then we have:
$a=a$
$b=a+1$
$c=a+2$
$d=a+3$
This implies:
$\frac{a}{b}=\frac{a}{a+1}$
$\frac{b}{c}=\frac{a+1}{a+2}$
$\frac{c}{d}=\frac{a+2}{a+3}$
I don't know how that helps. I'm greatly seeking your help. Thank you very much.

If $a_n = \frac{n-1}{n}$,
$$a_{n+1} - a_n = \frac{n}{n+1} - \frac{n-1}{n} = \frac{n^2 - (n-1)(n+1)}{n(n+1)} = \frac{1}{n(n+1)} > 0$$

Also,
$$a_n = \frac{n-1}{n} = 1 - \frac1 n$$
It should be clear that $1/n$ is decreasing as $n$ increases, and so this sequence increases towards $1$.
