Answer: The required fraction = \dfrac18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the required fraction = \dfrac{p}{q}

Given: Initial height = 192 inches

Height of ball after second bounce = \dfrac{p}{q}\times192

Height of ball after third bounce = \dfrac{p}{q}\times\dfrac{p}{q}\times192=192\dfrac{p^2}{q^2}

After the third bounce it is 3 inches off the ground.

So,

(\dfrac{p}{q})^2192=3\\\\\\(\dfrac{p}{q})^2=\dfrac{3}{192}\\\\(\dfrac{p}{q})^2=\dfrac{1}{64}\\\\(\dfrac{p}{q})^2=(\dfrac{1}{8})^2\\\\ \dfrac{p}{q}=\dfrac{1}{8}

Hence, The required fraction = \dfrac18
