Question

46th term for 206, 202, 198,

Answer 1

To solve this question, we can use arithmetic sequences:

`a_n=a_1+d(n-1)`

In this case, d is -4, which is the difference between consecutive terms, a1 is 206 which is the first term of the sequence and n is 46 which is the position of the term we are looking for:

`\begin{gathered} a_n=206-4(46-1) \\ a_n=206-180 \\ a_n=26 \end{gathered}`

The 46th term is 26.
