Problem:
32, 16/3, 8/9, 4/27, ___, ___, ____
My attempt:

Answer by Edwin McCravy(20060) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!

Yes, you are correct, but that last term of the sequence
 should be simplified so that the numerator
will be an integer. 0.5 needs to be multiplied by 2 to
get the integer 1.  So multiply the term by 



Written that way, you can't see how it fits the pattern 
anymore, but it does, and is the correct 7th term.
