The common ratio of G.P is
Explanation:
2nd,3rd and 4th number are in A.P with common difference
Let 2nd,3rd and 4th number are
1st and 4th number are equal , so 1st number is
four numbers of the sequence are
1st,2nd and 3rd number are in G.P, which means
by cross multiplication ,
So the numbers in the sequence are
The common ratio of G.P is
