    Many of the continued fraction expansions of Ramanujan can be viewed as special cases of the expansion of the ratio of basic hypergeometric series: \(_ 2\phi_ 1(a,b;c;xq)/_ 2\phi_ 1(a,b;c;x).\) The authors find the related expansions for the ratios in which the numerator has been replaced by one of a number of similar basic hypergeometric series.
