Answer:

D) 0.9

Explanation:

The common ratio of a sequence is the amount you multiply a term by to get the next one. To find this number divide the second term by the first term, so 36/40. This will give you 0.9, to check your answer take the first term and multiply it by the common ratio a few times; you should get the exact sequence listed in the question.
