The common ratio can be calculated as
\n" ); document.write( "\"22%2F%28-11%29=-2\" .
\n" ); document.write( "Each term is the one before times \"%28-2%29\" ,
\n" ); document.write( "so after \"22\" comes \"22%2A%28-2%29=highlight%2844%29\" ,
\n" ); document.write( "and if \"x\"= that mystery first term, then
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28-2%29x=-11\" --> \"x=%28-11%29%2F%28-2%29=highlight%2811%2F2=5.5=5%261%2F2%29\" .
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
