Which term of the series 5, 10, 20, 40, ..... is 1280?

  • A.10th
  • B.9th
  • C.8th
  • D.None of these

Answer: B

Clearly, 5 x 2 = 10, 10 x 2 = 20, 20 x 2 = 40,.....
So, the series is a G.P. in which a = 5 and r = 2.
Let 1280 be the rath term of the series.
Then, 5x2n-1 = 1280  2n-1 = 256 = 28  n - 1 = 8  n = 9.
