problem

Alicia starts a sequence with m=3m=3. What is the fifth term of her sequence following the algorithm: Step 1: Alicia writes down the number mm as the first term. Step 2: If mm is even, Alicia sets n=rac12mn= rac{1}{2} m. If mm is odd, Alicia sets n=m+1n=m+1. Step 3: Alicia writes down the number m+n+1m+n+1 as the next term. Step 4: Alicia sets mm equal to the value of the term that she just wrote down in Step 3. Step 5: Alicia repeats Steps 2, 3, 4 until she has five terms, at which point she stops.
Plain-text mathematical notation (without MathML)
Alicia starts a sequence with m=3. What is the fifth term of her sequence following the algorithm: Step 1: Alicia writes down the number m as the first term. Step 2: If m is even, Alicia sets n=rac12m. If m is odd, Alicia sets n=m+1. Step 3: Alicia writes down the number m+n+1 as the next term. Step 4: Alicia sets m equal to the value of the term that she just wrote down in Step 3. Step 5: Alicia repeats Steps 2, 3, 4 until she has five terms, at which point she stops.
Original LaTeX notation
Alicia starts a sequence with $m=3$. What is the fifth term of her sequence following the algorithm: Step 1: Alicia writes down the number $m$ as the first term. Step 2: If $m$ is even, Alicia sets $n=rac{1}{2} m$. If $m$ is odd, Alicia sets $n=m+1$. Step 3: Alicia writes down the number $m+n+1$ as the next term. Step 4: Alicia sets $m$ equal to the value of the term that she just wrote down in Step 3. Step 5: Alicia repeats Steps 2, 3, 4 until she has five terms, at which point she stops.
