Common Ratio of Geometric Progression given Last Term Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Common Ratio of Progression = (Last Term of Progression/First Term of Progression)^(1/(Number of Total Terms of Progression-1))
r = (l/a)^(1/(n_Total-1))
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Common Ratio of Progression - The Common Ratio of Progression is the ratio of any term to its preceding term of the Progression.
Last Term of Progression - The Last Term of Progression is the term at which the given Progression terminates.
First Term of Progression - The First Term of Progression is the term at which the given Progression starts.
Number of Total Terms of Progression - The Number of Total Terms of Progression is the total number of terms present in the given sequence of Progression.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Last Term of Progression: 100 --> No Conversion Required
First Term of Progression: 3 --> No Conversion Required
Number of Total Terms of Progression: 10 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

r = (l/a)^(1/(n_Total-1)) --> (100/3)^(1/(10-1))

Evaluating ... ...

r = 1.47641602193981

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1.47641602193981 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

1.47641602193981 ≈ 1.476416 <-- Common Ratio of Progression

What is a Geometric Progression?

In Mathematics a Geometric Progression or simply GP also known as a geometric sequence, is a sequence of numbers where each term after the first is found by multiplying the previous one by a fixed real number called the common ratio. For example, the sequence 2, 6, 18, 54,... is a Geometric Progression with common ratio 3. If the sum of all terms in the progression is a finite number or if the infinite sum of the progression exists then the we say it is an Infinite Geometric Progression or Infinite GP. And if the infinite sum of the progression does not exist, then it is a Finite Geometric Progression or Finite GP. If the absolute value of the common ratio is greater than 1 then the GP will be a Finite GP and if it is less than 1 then the GP will be an Infinite GP.
