What is the equation for this pattern?

I really should be able to nail down an equation for this sequence, but my mind has completely deserted me regarding how to represent it in equation form. 1, 1.5, 1.75, 1.875, 1.9375, and so onwards. Effectively +0.5, +0.25, +0.125, +0.0625 and so onwards.

Thanks for your help guys. :)
