(√2)=1+(1/(1+(√2)))    ...(i)  putting value of (√2) from (i) in RHS  of (i)  ⇒(√2)=1+(1/(1+1+(1/( (√2)))))=(1/(2+(1/( (√2)))))  ⇒(√2)=1+(1/(2+(1/(2+(1/( (√2)))))))  and so on  (√2)=1+(1/(2+(1/(2+(1/(2+⋱))))))  approxmial value calculations  (√2)≈1+(1/2)=(3/2)  (√2)≈1+(1/(2+1/2))=1+(2/5)=(7/5)  continuing this way  (√2)≈1+(1/(1+(√2)))=1+(1/(1+7/5))=((17)/(12))  (√2)≈1+(1/(1+17/12))=((41)/(29))  continuing this way will result  in more accurate values of (√2)  ((99)/(70)),((239)/(169)),((577)/(408)),((1393)/(985)),((3363)/(2379)),((8119)/(5741)),((19601)/(13860))
