उत्तर

\[\text { Given }: \]

\[\text { First term, } a = 5 \]

\[\text { Common ratio }, r = 2\]

\[ a_n = \left( 5 \right) \left( 2 \right)^{n - 1} . . . \left( 1 \right)\]

\[\text { Similarly, } a_n = \left( 1280 \right) \left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^{n - 1} . . . \left( 2 \right)\]

\[\text { From }\left( 1 \right) \text { and } \left( 2 \right)\]

\[\left( 5 \right) \left( 2 \right)^{n - 1} = \left( 1280 \right) \left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^{n - 1} \]

\[ \Rightarrow \frac{1}{256} = \left( \frac{1}{4} \right)^{n - 1} \]

\[ \Rightarrow \left( \frac{1}{4} \right)^4 = \left( \frac{1}{4} \right)^{n - 1} \]

\[ \Rightarrow n - 1 = 4 \]

\[ \Rightarrow n = 5\]
