find the 12th term of the sequence
36,18,9....
the 12th number in the sequence is 0.0087890625
should it be a fraction?
To find the 12th term of the sequence 36, 18, 9..., we need to determine the pattern or rule that governs the sequence.
From the given sequence, we can observe that each term is half of the previous term. This means that each term is obtained by multiplying the previous term by a factor of 1/2.
Using this pattern, we can find the 12th term by multiplying the 11th term by 1/2.
The 11th term is obtained by multiplying the 10th term by 1/2, and so on. We can write this pattern as:
36 * (1/2)^1 = 36 * 1/2 = 18
18 * (1/2)^1 = 18 * 1/2 = 9
9 * (1/2)^1 = 9 * 1/2 = 4.5
From here, we can continue this pattern until we reach the 12th term.
4.5 * (1/2)^1 = 4.5 * 1/2 = 2.25
Therefore, the 12th term of the sequence 36, 18, 9... is 2.25.
