Question

What is the common ratio of the following sequence?
8, 64, 512, 4096

Answer 1

we know the given term are in geometric progression.

we know that first term is a which is equal to 8 .

second term is 8 which can be represented as 64.

to find common ratio we have a formula

common ratio =
`r=a_(2) /a_(1) =64/8=8.`

if we do the same for second and third term will get the same 8 .

in geometric progression common ratio is equal between two terms
