MELC: Illustrating geometric
sequence.
Lesson:
Geometric Sequence
What I Need to Know After this lesson, you
are expected to :
1. Recall operations on rational
numbers-multiplication

2. Distinguish arithmetic
sequence from non- arithmetic
sequence.
What I Need to Know After this lesson, you
are expected to :

3. define and illustrate a

geometric sequence

4. differentiate a geometric from

arithmetic sequence
What I Need to Know After this lesson, you
are expected to :
5. given the first few terms of a
geometric sequence, find the
common ratio.
6. relate real-life experiences to
geometric sequence.
Multiplication of Fractions
To multiply fractions, multiply
numerator to numerator and
denominator to denominator and
reduce to lowest term.

Lesson 1:
Illustrating Geometric
Sequence
How do we find the common ratio?

1. 2, 6, 18, 54, …
6÷2 18 ÷ 6 54 ÷ 18
consecutive 3
Any two 3 3
term in the sequence has
a ratio of 3, therefore the common ratio is 3
Determine whether each sequence is arithmetic or
geometric. If arithmetic, give the common
difference. If geometric, give the common ratio.

 What I Have Learned Today, we have learned that

Geometric sequence – is the

sequence where each term in the
sequence is obtained by
multiplying a constant number
called the common ratio.
 What I Can Do
Suppose a tank of water is filled with
10,000 liters of water. However, it has
a hole and of the amount of water is
spilled every hour. How much water is
left after 5 hours?
 GREAT JOB!
Thank you for participating in
today’s face to face session.

See you next meeting.

GOD BLESS, STAY

SAFE AND HEALTHY
