Answer:

In a geometric sequence, the ratio between consecutive terms is constant.

Explanation:

A geometric sequence is where you get from one term to another by multiplying by the same value. This value is known as the constant ratio, or common ratio. An example of a geometric sequence and it's constant ratio would be the sequence 4, 16, 64, 256, . . ., in which you find the next term by multiplying the previous term by four. 4 × 4 = 16, 16 × 4 = 64, and so on. So, in this sequence the constant ratio would be four.
