How do I work this question out?
Find the value of Ln/Ln-1 for values of n from 2 to 11. Give answers correct to 3 decimal places where necessary!

Please help thanks!

Can you please check the question. For such small values of n, there seems to be some data missing.
For example, there should be at least two values given. eg for L1 and L2 or L2 and L3????
