प्रश्न

If in an infinite G.P., first term is equal to 10 times the sum of all successive terms, then its common ratio is 

पर्याय

  • 1/10 

  • 1/11 

  • 1/9. 

  • 1/20

MCQ

उत्तर

 \[\frac{1}{11}\] 

Let the first term of the G.P. be a.
Let its common ratio be r.
​According to the question, we have:
First term = 10        [Sum of all successive terms]

\[a = 10\left( \frac{ar}{1 - r} \right)\]
\[ \Rightarrow a - ar = 10ar\]
\[ \Rightarrow 11ar = a\]
\[ \Rightarrow r = \frac{a}{11a} = \frac{1}{11}\]
