Answer 1

Answer:

1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

If it was supposed to be a negative answer, there would be negative numbers in the sequence. So that narrows it do to 3 and 1/3. And now we know that 27*3 isn't 9 but 27*1/3=9 and so on.

Answer 2

Answer:

your answer will have to be 3

Step-by-step explanation:

from 27 to 9, we divided by 3

from 9 to 3, we divided by 3

from 1 to 1/3, we divided by 3

from 1/3 to 1/9, we divided by 3

from 1/9 to 1/27, we divided by 3

so basically the common ratio will have to be 3
