Step-by-step explanation:
this is clearly not a linear sequence (the terms don't have the same difference).
so, it has to be a geometric sequence.
the common ratio is r.
s2 = s1 × r
16 = 64 × r
r = 16/64 = 1/4
control :
s3 = s2×r
4 = 16 × 1/4 = 4
correct.
Answer:
17/12 = 1 5/12
Step-by-step explanation:
The common denominator of 4 and 3 is 12.
The equivalent fraction of 3/4 is 9/12.
The equivalent fraction of 2/3 is 8/12.
Their total is 17/12 (or 1 5/12).
No, Lily is not correct. This is because 16+3 does not equal 18. So to find N, you take 18 and subtract 16.
18-16=n
18-16=2
so n=2
16+2=18.
