Insert 6 geometric means between 27 and .

Let the six terms be a1, a2, a3, a4, a5, a6.


And,


A = 27, B


Now, these 6 terms are between A and B.


A, a1, a2, a3, a4, a5, a6, B.


Now all of them are in GP


So we now have 8 terms in GP with the first term being 27 and eighth being 1/81.


We know that, Tn = arn–1


Here Tn = , a = 27 and





a1 = Ar =


a2 = Ar2 =


a3 = Ar3 =


a4 = Ar4 =


a5 = Ar5 =


a6 = Ar6 =


The six GM between 27 and 1/81 are .
