Find the common difference in the arithmetic sequence 13/4, 7/2, 15/4

a. 1/4
B.3/4
c. 5/2
d. 4

Answer:

A. 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

In an arithmetic sequence, if you are given consecutive terms with a missing difference, simply subtract a term with the one before it.

Here well equate the two differences to see if they match (which means its correct).

7/2 - 13/4 = 15/4 - 7/2

Find the LCD or simply convert 7/2 to /4.

14/4 - 13/4 = 15/4 - 14/4

1/4 = 1/4

The common difference is 1/4.
