The Egyptians of anti quity expressed a fraction as a sum of fractions whose numerators were 1. For example, 5/6 might be expressed as
= +
We say that a fraction p/q, where p and q are positive integers is in Egyptian form if
where n1, n2, … nk are positive integers satisfying n1 < n2 < … <nk.
Show that the representation need not be unique by representing 5/6 in two different way
