Answer 2

Answer:

Option C is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the pattern as the exponent decreases.

the first value in the table is 125.

if we divide 125 by 5 i.e 125/5 we get 25

the next value in the table is 25

if we divide 25 by 5 i.e 25/5 we get 5

the next value in the table is 5

if we divide 5 by 5 i.e 5/5 we get 1

the next value in the table is 1

if we divide 1 by 5 i.e 1/5 we get 1/5

the next value in the table is 1/5

if we divide 1/5 by 5 i.e 1/5*5 we get 1/25

the next value in the table is 1/25

So, the pattern is if we divide the previous value by 5 we get the next value in the table.

So, Option C is correct.
