Question
Describe the pattern in the numbers. Write the next number in the pattern.
7, 3.5, 1.75, 0.875, …
Hint:
A sequence of numbers which has a common difference between any two consecutive numbers is called an arithmetic progression (A.P.). The arithmetic progression general form is given by a, a + d, a + 2d, a + 3d, . . .. Hence, the formula to find the nth term is:
an = a + (n – 1) × d
The correct answer is: 7 , 3.5 , 1.75 , 0.875 , 0.4375
We have given a pattern
7, 3.5, 1.75, 0.875, …
We have to find the next term of the given pattern
First term is 7 and second is 3.5 and third is 0.875
On analysis we get that , the next term is half of the previous term
Therefore the next term will be
Fourth term = 0.875 / 2 = 0.4375
Therefore, the pattern will be 7 , 3.5 , 1.75 , 0.875 , 0.4375 , …
