Answer:

The common ratio is 3

Explanation:

Since this is a geometric sequence you know you will be either adding or dividing. If you do 3159/3 you get 1053 and if you divide 1053 by 3 you get 351. So therefore the common ratio of this sequence is 3

I'm assuming this problem is going left to right. Right?
