Respuesta :

The common ratio (r) of a geometric sequence is found dividing two consecutive terms, as follows:

[tex]\begin{gathered} r=\frac{1457}{1428}=1.02 \\ r=\frac{1486}{1457}=1.02 \\ r=\frac{1516}{1486}=1.02 \\ r=\frac{1546}{1516}=1.02 \end{gathered}[/tex]

The common ratio of the sequence is 1.02
