In a geometric sequence, where first term is a 1 and common ratio is r,
n t h term a n is given by a 1 × r n - 1
Hence nth term of a geometric sequence whose first term is a 1 = 1000 and common ratio is r=1.005 is
a n = 1000 × 1.005 n
and a 60 = 1000 × 1.005 60 1000 × 1.34885 = 1348.85 ,
where value of 1.005 60 has been approximated up to 5dp.
