Question

describe the pattern in the number 3.5,1.75,0.875 and what would the next two numbers be

Answer 1

divide 1.75 by 3.5
and 0.875 by 1.75

what do you get?

Answer 2

you will get 1/2 each time

so each new number is obtained by multiplying by 1/2 ( or 0.5)
so next number is 0.875 * 0.5 = 0.4375
and next is 0.4375 * 0.5
- you can work this one out i'm sure (with ur calculator)

Answer 3

ok?
