Question

A square is split into four

similar squares, one of

the new squares is split

into fourths again, and

this process continues.

What kind of sequence

does this demonstrate?

Answer 1

Geometric Sequence.

Explanation:

We are told that the square is split into 4 similar squares. One of the new squares is now split into fourths again and this same sequence is repeated over again.

This means that there is a common ratio which is ¼.

Since there is a common ratio and not common difference, this sequence is said to be a geometric sequence.
