The pattern is dividing by 4 so it would be: 640 (divided by 4), 160 (divided by 4), 40 (divided by 4), 10 (divided by four), 5/2.
The next number would be 10/4 or 5/2 when simplified. (I’d go with 5/2 because teachers liked simplified numbers)
Answer:
c
Step-by-step explanation:
3/24 = 3/3*8 = 1/8
24/32 = 4*6/4*8 = 6/8
32/24 = 4*8/4*6 = 8/6
24/3 = 3*8/3 = 8/1 = 8
12, 4, 4/3 has a common ratio.
use cross products to solve
5* (n-9) = 8*n
distribute
5n-45 = 8n
subtract 5n from both sides
-45 = 3n
divide both sides by 3
-15 = n
