63. Given,
Principal value, amount deposited, P= ?500
Interest Rate, R= 10
Using compound interest = simple interest +
Amount at the end of 1st year
=
= ?500* (1.1)
Amount at the end of 2nd year
=
=
= ?500 (1.1)2
Similarly,
Amount at the end of 3rd year = ?500 (1.1)3
So, the amount will form a G.P.
? 500 (1.1)? 500 (1.1)2?500 (1.1)3, ……….
After 10 years = ?500 (1.1)10

62. Since the numbers of bacteria doubles every hour. The number after every hour will be a G.P
So, a=30
r=2
At end of 2nd hour, a3 (or 3rd term) =
= 30*24
= 120
At end of 4th hour, a5 (r 4th term) =
= 30*24
= 30*16
= 480
Following the trend,
And at the end of nth hour, an+1=
= 30 *2n

60. Let a and b be the two numbers and a>b so a-b = (+ ve)
So, sum of two numbers = 6. G.M of a and b

58. Let G1 and G2 be the two numbers between 3 and 81 so that 3, G1, G2, 81 is in G.P.
So, a = 3
a4 = ar3 = 81 (when r = common ratio)
r3 = 27
r3 = 33
r = 3
So, G1 = ar = 33=9 and G2 = ar2 3´ (3)2 =27

57. Let r be the common ratio of the G.P. then,
First term = a1 = a = a
So, L.H.S.=
=
=
=
=
R.H.S.=
=
=
= { }
=
L.H.S. = R.H.S.

56. Let a and r be the first term and common difference of the G.P
Thus, Sum of the first on term,
Let Sn = sum of term from (n+1)th to (2n)th term
=
=
[ the above is a G.P. with first term arx and common ratio =
and number of term from (2n)th to (n+1)th = n
So,
=
=

55. Given, first term and xth term and a and b
Let r be the common ratio of the G.P.
Then,
Product of x terms, p= ……
p= ….
= (a *a* ….n term)(r´r2´r3 …. )
=
p =
So, [We know that,
= [
= [So,
=
= last term = b (given)]
=

54. Let a and r be the first term and common ratio of the G.P.
Then, ap = a
…… I
and aq = b
…….II
Also, ar = c
….III
Given, L.H.S. =
using I, II and III
A0 R[pqprq+r+qrpqr+p+prqrp+q]
= R
= 1
= R.H.S
