Answer:
The common difference (or common ratio) = 0.75
Step-by-step explanation:
i) let the first term be
= 80
ii) let the second term be
=
. r = 80 × r = 60 ∴ r =
= 0.75
iii) let the third term be
=
. r = 60 × r = 45 ∴ r =
= 0.75
iv) let the fourth term be
=
. r = 45 × r = 33.75 ∴ r =
= 0.75
Therefore we can see that the series of numbers are part of a geometric progression and the first term is 80 and the common ratio = 0.75.

Answer:
78 laundries
$0.25
Step-by-step explanation:
If the box contains 195 scoops and at once he uses 2 1/2 you have to divide 195 by 2 1/2 and you get 78.
How much is he paying for each load? you have to find the unit rate. The box costs $19.99 he can do 78 laundries at once so you divide the money by the quantity or in other words $19.99 by 78 and get 0.2562820512820513, since we are talking about money we use only the firs two decimals, so he pays $0.25 per load of laundry.
