Math Pizza

Q: You start eating a half a pizza, then eat the remaining half of the half and continue to eat the pizza this way. Will you ever finish? Explain your reasoning. How is this a sequence?
A: You will never finish the pizza because you are only eating half of the pizza each time. This is a sequence because the common ratio would be 0.5 which is between 0 and 1 so the term value will decrease and only approach closer and closer to 0.
