The natural numbers are divided into groups as (1), $(2,3,4),(5,6,7,8,9), \ldots .$. and so on. Then, the sum of the numbers in the 15th group is equal to

A lab experiment measures the number of organisms at $8$ am every day. Starting with $2$ organisms on the first day, the number of organisms on any day is equal to $3$ more than twice the number on the previous day. If the number of organisms on nth day exceeds one million, then the lowest possible value of $n$ is

An infinite geometric progression $a_1, a_2, a_3,...$ has the property that $a_n = 3(a_{n+1} + a_{n+2} +....)$ for every $n \ge 1$. If the sum $a_1 + a_2 + a_3 +..... = 32$, then $a_5$ is
