The first term of a sequence is 20.
If a term in the sequence is t and t is even, the next term is t/2
If a term in the sequence is t and t is odd, the next term is 3t + 1.
Therefore, the first three terms in the sequence are 20, 10, 5.
What is the 100th term of the sequence?

20 is even. 

10 is even. 

5 is odd.

16 is even. 

8 is even. 

4 is even. 

2 is even. 

1 is odd. 

4 is even... and it starts to repeat. 

 

Can you take it from here?
