A number pattern was created by dividing the previous term by 3. If the starting value for the pattern was 135, which of the fol
lowing shows the resulting pattern?

135, 45, 30, 5...
B.
135, 45, 15, 5...

Answer:
B. 135, 45, 15, 5...
Step-by-step explanation:
I'll go in order from 135 using the pattern shown (tᵇ/3)
135 / 3
135 = 120 + 15
135/3 = (120/3) + (15/3)
135/3 = 40 + 5
135/3 = 45
All four answer choices show this, so no elimination yet.
45 / 3
45 = 30 + 15
45/3 = (30/3) + (15/3)
45/3 = 10 + 5
45/3 = 15
A and D show 30 as term 3, so they are out.
15 / 3
15/3 = 5
C shows 2 as term 4, so that is also out.
This leaves B as the correct answer.

No, when you have a zero in that space you don't necessarily need an addendum unless it helps you.
