The ratio of this geometric sequence is 10, which means every term is multiplied by 10 to find the next term.

Starting with .02, shift the decimal to the right 7 times.

Your answer is 200,000.

0.02 - 0.2 - 2 - 20 - 200 - 2000 - 20000
All it is doin is moving the decimal point back 1 . so if you keep moving it back the 7th term is 20000

Hope it help
