Let $a$, $b$ be two non-zero real numbers. If $p$ and $r$ are the roots of the equation $x ^{2}-8 ax +2 a =0$ and $q$ and $s$ are the roots of the equation $x^{2}+12 b x+6 b$ $=0$, such that $\frac{1}{ p }, \frac{1}{ q }, \frac{1}{ r }, \frac{1}{ s }$ are in A.P., then $a ^{-1}- b ^{-1}$ is equal to $......$

If the sum of first $n$ terms of an $A.P.$ is $cn(n -1)$ , where $c \neq 0$ , then sum of the squares of these terms is

If $b + c,$ $c + a,$ $a + b$ are in $H.P.$, then $\frac{a}{{b + c}},\frac{b}{{c + a}},\frac{c}{{a + b}}$ are in

Five numbers are in $A.P.$, whose sum is $25$ and product is $2520 .$ If one of these five numbers is $-\frac{1}{2},$ then the greatest number amongst them is

If the sum of first $n$ terms of an $A.P.$ be equal to the sum of its first $m$ terms, $(m \ne n)$, then the sum of its first $(m + n)$ terms will be

Given that $n$ A.M.'s are inserted between two sets of numbers $a,\;2b$and $2a,\;b$, where $a,\;b \in R$. Suppose further that ${m^{th}}$ mean between these sets of numbers is same, then the ratio $a:b$ equals
