Find the common ratio of the geometric sequence 6, 24, 96, ...

Sagot :

Answer:

The common ratio is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

How?

Multiplying or dividing is how to get the common ratio in a geometric sequence (moving from either left to right or right to left) *in this question to be precise* okay so...

Moving from right to left, and dividing, 96 ÷ 24 is 4; 24 ÷6 is 4 so the common ration is still 4.

(To find the next terms, moving from left to right, and multiplying, multiply the previous term by the common ration, so the next term after 96 is 96 × 4, which is 384, and you continue....)

You are very welcome and good luck :)
