Identify the Sequence 3 , 3/2 , 3/4 , 3/8

This is a geometric sequence since there is a common ratio between each term. In this case, multiplying the previous term in the sequence by ${\displaystyle \frac{1}{2}}$ gives the next term. In other words, ${\displaystyle a_n=a_1{r}^{n-1}}$.

Geometric Sequence: ${\displaystyle r=\frac{1}{2}}$

This is the form of a geometric sequence.

Substitute in the values of ${\displaystyle a_1=3}$ and ${\displaystyle r=\frac{1}{2}}$.

Apply the product rule to ${\displaystyle \frac{1}{2}}$.

One to any power is one.
