Explanation:

First step is to find out if it's arthmetic or geometric:

Minus the second term with the first and then the third with the second. if they have the same difference. it's arthmetic

Divide the terms do the same thing as what I wrote but divide instead. Geometric Sequence

Your teacher didnt provide u with formula, use the long way just add the difference or the ratio u get
