Answer:

Yes, the given sequence is geometric and the common ratio is \frac{2}{3}.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given sequence is

\frac{1}{3},\frac{2}{9},\frac{4}{27},\frac{8}{81},\frac{16}{243}

If the ratio of all two consecutive terms are same, then the sequence is called geometric.

r=\frac{a_{n+1}}{a_n}

r_1=\frac{\frac{2}{9}}{\frac{1}{3}}=\frac{2}{3}

r_2=\frac{\frac{4}{27}}{\frac{2}{9}}=\frac{2}{3}

r_3=\frac{\frac{8}{81}}{\frac{4}{27}}=\frac{2}{3}

r_4=\frac{\frac{16}{243}}{\frac{8}{81}}=\frac{2}{3}

r_1=r_2=r_3=r_4

Therefore the given sequence is geometric and the common ratio is \frac{2}{3}.
