    a1=3xy ^ 5

    an = (2x / y) a (n-1)

    then

    a2 = (2x / y) a (1) = (2x / y) * 3xy^ 5=6 (x^ 2) (y^ 4)

    a2=6 (x^ 2) (y^ 4)

    a3 = (2x / y) a (2) = (2x / y) * 6 (x^ 2) (y^ 4) = 12 (x^ 3) (y^ 3)

    a3=12 (x^ 3) (y^ 3)

    a4 = (2x / y) a (3) = (2x / y) * 12 (x^ 3) (y^ 3) = 24 (x^ 4) (y^ 2)

    The answer is a4=24 (x^ 4) (y^ 2)
