The 1^st and 3^rd term is 33/8 and the sum of 1^st and 6^th is 3367/512.find the first term and common ratio
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Is my understanding correct that the 1-st and the 3-rd terms are BOTH equal to the same number ,
as it is stated in your post ?

And if it is so, then why do you ask about the 1-st term again in your question ?
