Jenny is incorrect in her calculation.
For every time that Jenny's brother washed dishes, Jenny washed dishes 4 times. This tells that the the times they washed dishes occur in the ratio 4 :1. If Jenny's brother washed dishes 8 times, Jenny has to have washed dishes 
times. The way Jenny's is doing the calculation implies that his brother washed dishes 
times. He calculation yields a wrong result.
<h3>
Answer: 1/8</h3>
Explanation:
Pick any term and subtract off the previous term to get the common difference.
So,
13/40 - 1/5 = 13/40 - 8/40 = (13-8)/40 = 5/40 = 1/8
Or
9/20 - 13/40 = 18/40 - 13/40 = (18-13)/40 = 5/40 = 1/8
The positive common difference value indicates this arithmetic sequence is increasing.
