Let x be the price of a cupcake.
There are 24 cupcakes so it will be 24x.
Solution:
24x+16=52
24x=52-16
24x=36
Divide both sides by 24
X=1.5.
The price of each cupcake is 1.5$
In a geometric progression:
a, b, c, d...
The common ratio can be obtained using:
b/a = c/b = d/c
b/a = 112 / 64 = 1.75
c/b = 196 / 112 = 1.75
d/c = 343 / 196 = 1.75
The common ratio = 1.75
