Sum of n terms of a geometric series is
Sn = a1 (r^n-1)/(r-1)
a1 = 1st term = 4
r = common ratio = 12/4 = 3
so, the sum is
Sn = 4 (3^n-1)/(3-1) = 2(3^n-1)
Answer:
8 gallons were eaten.
Step-by-step explanation:
You would multiply the percentage by the amount of gallons. So 80% would be 0.8 so it would be 0.8 multiplied by 10 which gives you 8.
Multiply by 4 to get to one minute —>28.
Multiply by 60 to get to one hour—> 1,680
Multiply by 5 to get to 5 hours—> 8,400
