Calculate geometric sequence of a series of numbers for the given values.
The geometric progression is also known as a geometric series. It is a sequence of numbers such that the quotient of any two successive members of the sequence is a constant called the common ratio (common difference) of the sequence.
The geometric progression of n terms, we mean a finite sequence in the form as follows :
a, ar, ar2, ar3, . . . . arn-1
Where
(a) is the first term of GP and real number
(r) is common difference.
Sn = a+ ar + ar2 + ar3 + ar4 +…+arn-1
The sum of n terms of GP formula:
Sn = na if r=1
Sn = a[(rn-1)/(r-1)] if r ≠ 1
a is the first term
r is the common ratio
n is the number of terms
