Remember that in a Geometric Sequence each term is found by multiplying the previous term by a constant.
In general, we write a geometric secuence as:

Where:
• a, is the first term of the sequence
,
• r ,is the common ratio (the factor between the terms)
For the particular sequence we're given, notice that we start at 4 and multiply by 3 in each step. This way,

Therefore, the formula to calculate the value of the n-th step of the sequence is:

For the ninth term (n = 9):

This way, the nith term of the geometric sequence is 26244
