Answer:

The first term of the sequence is 1/5

Explanation:

The first term is 1/5.

The reason is that there is a common ratio between each term. In this case multiplying the previous term in the sequence by 5 would give the next term.

So in this case 1/5 is the first term.

If we multiply 1/5 by 5, it will give the next term which is 1.

1/5*5=1

Thus the first term in the sequence = 1/5....
