    A rational number xx is given. Prove that there exists a sequence x0,x1,x2,…x_{0}, x_{1}, x_{2}, \ldots of rational numbers with the following properties: (a) x0=xx_{0}=x; (b) for every n≥1n \geq 1, either xn=2xn−1x_{n}=2 x_{n-1} or xn=2xn−1+1nx_{n}=2 x_{n-1}+\frac{1}{n}; (c) xnx_{n} is an integer for some nn.
