Yes, it can.
Eg: 1, 3, 5, 7 is a sequence with common diff 2
also 2,4,6,8 has CD of 2.
The common difference is the difference between two numbers in an arithmetic sequence.
arithmetic sequence
This is an arithmetic sequence with initial term a = 3 and common difference d = 2. Using the nth term formula for arithmetic sequences an = a + (n - 1)d we get an = 3 + (n - 1)(2) = 2n - 2 + 3 = 2n + 1.
When quantities in a given sequence increase or decrease by a common difference,it is called to be in arithmetic progression.
Arithmetic, common difference 5.5
Common difference, in the context of arithmetic sequences is the difference between one element of the sequence and the element before it.
The common difference does not tell you the location of the sequence. For example, 3, 6, 9, 12, ... and 1, 4, 7, 10, .., or 1002, 1005, 1008, 1011, ... all have a common difference of 3 but it should be clear that the three sequences are different. A common difference is applicable to arithmetic sequences, not others such as geometric or exponential sequences.
The common difference is the difference between two numbers in an arithmetic sequence.
It is the "common difference".It is the "common difference".It is the "common difference".It is the "common difference".
The difference between each number in an arithmetic series
An arithmetic-geometric mean is a mean of two numbers which is the common limit of a pair of sequences, whose terms are defined by taking the arithmetic and geometric means of the previous pair of terms.
yes. A zero common difference represents a constant sequence.

Arithmetic, common difference 5.5
It is the difference between a term (other than the second) and its predecessor.
