What is the common ratio of the geometric series below?
24 plus left parenthesis negative 8 right parenthesis plus start fraction 8 over 3 end fraction plus left parenthesis negative start fraction 8 over 9 end fraction right parenthesis plus ellipsis
(1 point)
The common ratio of a geometric series is found by dividing any term by the previous term. In this case, we can find the common ratio by dividing each term by the previous term:
Common ratio = (-8)/(24) = -1/3
Therefore, the common ratio of the given geometric series is -1/3.
