  1. the next two will be 25, 125

    How to get it:

    since this is a geometric sequence, we should first divide the second number from the sequence to the first to get the ratio of the sequence, just like this:

    (1/5)÷(1/25)=x

    (1/5)(25/1)=5

    so, the common ratio is five. We will now just multiply each number by 5, that is why the next two are 25 and 125.


  2. 25, 125


  3. 1/25,1/5,1,5,25,125,625,...

    all are multiples of 5


  4. = 5², 5³

    = (5 * 5), (5 * 5 * 5)

    = 25, 125

    Answer: 25, 125

    Just add 1 to previous exponent with 5 as the constant.

  5. the gaps are this: 1/25, 1/5, 1, 5, 25, 125

  6. 1/25,1/5,1,5,25,125

  7. You are multiplying by five every time, so the next numbers would be 25, 125.
