Question

Find the common difference for the sequence shown

1/4, 5/16, 3/8, ...

1/16
1/4
1/2

Answer 1

the requested difference \(d\), is:
\[\Large \begin{gathered}
r = \frac{5}{{16}} - \frac{1}{4} = ...? \hfill \\
\hfill \\
r = \frac{3}{8} - \frac{5}{{16}} = ...? \hfill \\
\end{gathered} \]

Answer 2

oops...
\[\Large \begin{gathered}
d = \frac{5}{{16}} - \frac{1}{4} = ...? \hfill \\
\hfill \\
d = \frac{3}{8} - \frac{5}{{16}} = ...? \hfill \\
\end{gathered} \]
