...in any rank of numbers in Geometrical Progreffien, confifting of four, or any even number of terms, the product of the two extremes will be equal to the product of the two middle numbers, or of any two means equally diftant from the faid extremes. 2, 4, 8, 1 6, 32,... | |

...= 45 x IJ each being 675, Hence if ever fo many numbers are in geometrical prpgrefTion, the produft of the two extremes will be equal to the product of any two means, that are didanc from the extremes, As in thefe 3, 9, 27, St, 243, 729, Here 3 x 729 = 9 x 24.1 =27... | |
