Each term is obtaine by dividing the previous term by -5.
So the next terms will be 1/5, -1/25, 1/125 .....

Shawn's got it....realize also that the pattern is the current number divided by -5. As you do that, each subsequent number changes to positive or negative (opposite of the previous number).

the operation is divide by negative five
thus the answer is -1 divided by -5 which is positive 1/5
PS: Next time I think you should add a few more exclamation points.
