Question

In the sequence 400, 200, 150, 75, 25...... what number comes next

Answer 1

Answer:

The next term in the sequence = -175

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given sequence is : 400, 200, 150, 75, 25...

Now here, in the given sequence,

First Term - Second Term = 400 - 200 = 200

Second Term -   Third Term   =  200  - 150  = 50

Third term  - Fourth Term  = 150 - 75   = 75

Fourth term - Fifth term = 75 - 25 =  50

So, following this pattern,

Fifth Term - Sixth term = 200

Or, 25 - Sixth Term = 200

or, Sixth term  =  25 - 200  = - 175

Hence, the next term in the sequence = -175
