Answer: The sequence converges. The limit it converges to is 0.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The sequence is a geometric sequence with a = 72 and r = 1/4. Because 0 < r < 1, this means that the sequence gets smaller and smaller. The terms get closer to 0. They don't actually get there but the limiting value is 0.
