Step-by-step explanation:

Calcute the ratio :

r = Un/Un-1

r = 60/120

r = ½

Calculate 4th term :

Un = ar^n-1

U4 = 120 × ½^4-1

U4 = 120 × ½³

U4 = 120 × 0.125

U4 = 15

Calculate 5th term :

Un = ar^n-1

U5 = 120 × ½^5-1

U5 = 120 × ½⁴

U5 = 120 × 0.0625

U5 = 7.5

Calculate 6th term :

Un = ar^n-1

U6 = 120 × ½^6-1

U6 = 120 × ½⁵

U6 = 120 × 0.03125

U6 = 3.75
