उत्तर
Let G1 and G2 be two numbers between 3 and 81 such that the series, 3, G1, G2, 81, forms a G.P.
Let a be the first term and r be the common ratio of the G.P.
∴81 = (3) (r)3
⇒ r3 = 27
∴ r = 3 (Taking real roots only)
For r = 3,
G1 = ar = (3) (3) = 9
G2 = ar2 = (3) (3)2 = 27
Thus, the required two numbers are 9 and 27
