We can write the sequence out more fully, as we can see each time it is divided by 6.
60, 60/6, 60/6^2, 60/6^3, and so on.
Therefore we know the sequence can be written as [tex]u_n= \frac{60}{6^{n-1}} [/tex]
You can think of this as a graph, i.e. y=60/6^(x-1)
As a result, as x tends to infinity, y tends to 0 (since it effectively becomes 60/infinity). Therefore the sequence converges toward zero.

each term is previous term * 1/6 so it converges
Its a Geometric Sequence qith a1 = 60 and common ratio = 1/6
limit = a1 / ( 1 - r) = 60 / 5/6 = 72 answer
