    The pattern in the sequence appears to be increasing by adding 3/4 each time. 
Starting with 1/2, we can add 3/4 to get the next number in the sequence:
1/2 + 3/4 = 2/4 + 3/4 = 5/4 or 1 1/4
To find the next number, we add 3/4 to 1 1/4:
1 1/4 + 3/4 = 5/4 + 3/4 = 8/4 or 2
Therefore, the next number in the sequence is 2.

    To find the pattern in the sequence, let's look at the difference between each consecutive term.
The difference between the first and second term is 1 1/4 - 1/2 = 5/4 - 2/4 = 3/4.
The difference between the second and third term is 2 - 1 1/4 = 8/4 - 5/4 = 3/4.
Since the difference between each consecutive pair of terms is consistent at 3/4, we can continue the sequence by adding 3/4 to the last term.
2 + 3/4 = 8/4 + 3/4 = 11/4 = 2 3/4.
Therefore, the missing term in the sequence is 2 3/4.
    
The difference between the first and second term is 1 1/4 - 1/2 = 5/4 - 2/4 = 3/4.
The difference between the second and third term is 2 - 1 1/4 = 8/4 - 5/4 = 3/4.
Since the difference between each consecutive pair of terms is consistent at 3/4, we can continue the sequence by adding 3/4 to the last term.
2 + 3/4 = 8/4 + 3/4 = 11/4 = 2 3/4.
Therefore, the missing term in the sequence is 2 3/4.
