उत्तर
Let the first term of the G.P. be a and its common ratio be r.
Now, 2nd term = t2 = 6 `=>` ar = 6
Also, t5 = 9 × t3
`=>` ar4 = 9 × ar2
`=>` r2 = 9
`=>` r = ±3
Since, each term of a G.P. is positive, we have r = 3 and ar = 6
`=>` a × 3 = 6
`=>` a = 2
∴ G.P. = a, ar, ar2, ar3, ........
= 2, 6, 2 × (3)2, 2 × (3)3, ............
= 2, 6, 18, 54, ..........
