I this paper, we will fid the cotiued fractio represetatio of quotiets of differet powers of cosecutive umbers betwee ad 0. Keywords: otiued fractios, quotiets, ratioal approximatios, uclidea algorithm.. INTROUTION The efficiet process of fidig the best ratioal approximatios of ay real umber x is the cotiued fractio expasio of that umber. I geeral, a simple cotiued fractio is a expressio of the form a 0, a, a0....(.) a a... where the letters a 0, a, a, deote idepedet variables ad may be iterpreted as real or complex umbers, fuctios etc. If the umber of terms is fiite, we write a0, a,, a a0...(.) a a... a If the umber of terms is ifiite, we write a 0, a, a0 a a......(.) or a fiite cotiued fractio [a 0, a, a,.., a ] ad a positive iteger k, the k-th remaider is defied as the cotiued fractio r a a,..., a....(.) k k, k y ratioal umber ca be represeted as a fiite cotiued fractio. If x = a / b is a ratioal umber, the the method for obtaiig the cotiued fractio of x is othig else tha the uclidea algorithm for computig the greatest commo divisor of a ad b: a a b r, 0 r b, x b r, / b a, r, r r0 r 0 r r0, x r0 / 0 ar r 0 r r, x r /, r, 0 Iteratioal Joural of Scietific ad Iovative Mathematical Research (IJSIMR) Page 0

2 .... Therefore, o the other had, sice the uclidea algorithm always stops, the cotiued fractio of a ratioal umber is always fiite. ece, it is obvious that a fiite cotiued fractio represets a ratioal umber[]. I view of uwieldiess of this otatio, various authors have proposed other ways of writig cotiued fractios, for example a a a b0 (Prigsheim, [])...(.) b b b a a a b 0 (Muller, [])...(.) b b b a a a b 0 (Rogers, [])...(.) b + b b where the fractio a b is called the th partial quotiet of the cotiued fractio; a ad b are the coefficiets of the cotiued fractio; b, b,..its partial deomiators; a,a its partial umerators. The study of fiite cotiued fractios, bega i its explicit form i the latter decades of the th cetury with a paper by ombelli writte whe the cocepts ad otatios of algebra were first beig laid dow i Italy ad race such expressios play a atural role i coectio with the itegrated applicatio of the uclidea algorithm ad some mathematical historias have claimed to have foud similar usages i idu or eve reek mathematics. Ifiite cotiued fractios were first cosidered by Lord roucker, first presidet of the Royal Society. The use of cotiued fractios as a importat tool i umber theory bega with th cetury results of Schweter, uyges ad Wallis ad came to maturity with the work of uler i ad the subsequet use of cotiued fractios as a umber theoretic tool by Lagrage, Legedre, auss, alois ad their successors. otiued fractio expasios ivolvig fuctios of a complex variable rather tha simply umbers were itroduced by uler ad became a importat tool i the approximatio of special classes of aalytic fuctios i the work of uler, Lambert ad Lagrage.
