<h3>What is the fraction of the cake was ron's pieces?</h3>
Ratio demonstrates how many times one number can fit into another number. Ratios contrast two numbers by ordinarily dividing them. A/B will be the formula if one is comparing one data point (A) to another data point (B).
Since Mrs Jones gave 1/5 of a cake to her neighbour, the remaining fraction will be:
= 1 - 1/5
= 4/5
The fraction of the cake that was ron's pieces will be:
= 2/(1+3+4) × 4/5
= 2/8 × 4/5
= 8/40
= 1/5

that's the answers, from top to bottom. hope this helps!
Let
a1=1/40
a2=4/40
a3=9/40
a4=16/40
a5=25/40
a6=?
we know that
a2-a1=4/40-1/40----> 3/40
a3-a2=9/40-4/40-----> 5/40
a4-a3=16/40-9/40----> 7/40
a5-a4=25/40-16/40---> 9/40
the difference is
3/40,5/40,7/40.9/40,....
3/40+[2/40]---> 5/40
5/40+[2/40]---> 7/40
7/40+[2/40]---> 9/40
the next will be
9/40+[2/40]-----> 11/40
so
the next term is 25/40+[11/40]------> 36/40
the answer is
36/40
