The third term of a GP is 4; Find the product of its five terms.

Given that the third term of the GP, a3 = 4


Let us assume the GP mentioned in the question be,



With the first term and common ratio R.


Now, the third term in the assumed GP is A.


So, A = 4 (given data)


Now,


Product of the first five terms of GP= = A5


So, the required product = A5 = 45 = 1024


The product of first five terms of a GP with its third term 4 is 1024.
