Answer:

5, 5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

80 becomes 40 if multiplied by 1/2; 40 becomes 20 if mult. by 1/2; and so on.

Thus, the common ratio of this geometric sequence is 1/2.

1/2 times 10 is 5;

1/2 times 5 is 5/2.

Looks like this is Answer C. Please note: your "5, 5 2" is not a correct representation of "5, 5/2." Please use " / " to indicate division.
