All you have to is divide two consecutive terms to calculate the common ratio
1/4 divided by 5/12 = 1/4 * 12/5 = 12/20 = 3/5
Answer:
-2
Step-by-step explanation:
7(-6) - 3
-42 -3
-45
Your answer is -45
Step 1: multiply the numbers in front of the parentheses with each term inside the parentheses
15p - 9 = 5p - 5
Step 2: get like terms on the same side
10p = 4
Step 3: divide both sides by 10
p = 4/10
Step 4: simplify
p = 2/5
