Hey,

if you are a real student (and not one of those whose job is to fill other websites or similar . . . ) then you need to know the following.

    The problems like this one are VERY ELEMENTARY. They are intended to check if you learned and understood the basic facts
    on geometric progressions.

    When you, the student (if you really are a student . . . ) post such problems to the forum hoping
    that the tutors will solve it for you, you DEPRIVE yourself this possibility to check your knowledge.

     We, the tutors, can easily solve tons of such problems ( and we really do it !).

     But if you do not learn the subject on your own, all our efforts will not have any sense. And your time will also be spent for nothing.

     YOU must learn the subject. YOU must learn the basic facts.

For it, see the introductory lessons on geometric sequences
    - Geometric progressions
    - The proofs of the formulas for geometric progressions
    - Problems on geometric progressions
    - Word problems on geometric progressions
in this site.

Also, you have this free of charge online textbook in ALGEBRA-II in this site

The referred lessons are the part of this online textbook under the topic "Geometric progressions".
