5/2-16/3=-11/1
16/3-27/4=-11/1
27/4-38/5=-11/1
38/5-49/6=-11/1
49/6-60/7=-11/1
there fore when we ADD 11/1 in 49/6 the the answer is 60/7

Denominator is incremented by 1 starting from 2.
sequence of numerator is as follows (5*1)+0,(5*3)+1,(5*5)+2,(5*7)+3,(5*9)+4,(5*11)+5...
hence the next number in the following sequence =60/7.
