What is the r value of the following geometric sequence? 40, 20, 10, 5,…

Parth (parthkohli):

We're essentially multiplying by 1/2 everytime. So r value(ratio) is 1/2 or 0.5

Parth (parthkohli):

Can you do the others?

Parth (parthkohli):

You can also do it like the current term over the previous term. \(\Large \color{Black}{\Rightarrow {20 \over 40} = {1 \over 2} }\)
