उत्तर

Let the required numbers be G1 and G2.

∴ 5, G1, G2, 40 are in G.P.

∴ t1 = 5, t2 = G1, t3 = G2, t4 = 40

∴ t1 = a = 5, t4 = 40

tn = arn–1

∴ t4 = 5(r)4–1

∴ 40 = 5r3

∴ r3 = 8 = 23

∴ r = 2

G1 = t2 = ar = 5 (2) = 10

G2 = t3 = ar2 = 5(2)2 = 20 

∴ For resulting sequence to be in G.P. we need to insert numbers 10 and 20.
