CAT 2020 Set-2 | Question: 55
Let the $\text{m-th}$ and $\text{n-th}$ terms of a geometric progression be $\dfrac{3}{4}$ and $12,$ respectively, where $\text{m < n}.$ If the common ratio of the progression is an integer $\textsf{r},$ then the smallest possible value of $\textsf{r+n-m}$ is $ - 2$ $2$ $6$ $ – 4$
