What is common Ratio ?

In a Geometric Sequence the ratio between each if the consecutive number is called the common Ratio.

Let Yui saving at the end of first month is Rs.x .

As given in the question

each month’s total is 5% greater than the previous month’s total.

Saving after second month is = First Month Total + 5% of First Month Total

= x + (5 % of x )

= x + (5*x/100)

= x + 0.05x

= 1.05x.

Yui balance is 1.05 times of Previous Month balance
