In the geometric below, what is the common ratio? 64, 16, 4, 1

To find a common ratio when given terms in a geometric sequence, divide terms based on their order, such as the following (where is the th term in the sequence and is the common ratio):

In the problem above, we can find the common ratio by this method:

In our geometric sequence, the common ratio is .

1 + (6 / x - 1)

step-by-step explanation:

divide using polynomial division.
