उत्तर

 \[\frac{1}{11}\] 

Let the first term of the G.P. be a.
Let its common ratio be r.
​According to the question, we have:
First term = 10        [Sum of all successive terms]

\[a = 10\left( \frac{ar}{1 - r} \right)\]
\[ \Rightarrow a - ar = 10ar\]
\[ \Rightarrow 11ar = a\]
\[ \Rightarrow r = \frac{a}{11a} = \frac{1}{11}\]
