Answer:

1 [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Note there is a common ratio between consecutive terms, that is

10 ÷ 20 = 5 ÷ 10 = 2 [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] ÷ 5 = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Thus to obtain the next term in the sequence multiply the previous term by [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

2 [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] = 1 [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]
