    A) \[{{3}^{\frac{2}{n}}}\]

    B) \[{{3}^{\frac{n+1}{2}}}\]

    C) \[{{3}^{\frac{n}{2}}}\]

    D) \[{{3}^{\frac{n-1}{2}}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

     a = 3, r = 3 G.M. = \[{{({{3.3}^{2}}{{.3}^{3}}{{.....3}^{n}})}^{1/n}}\]\[={{({{3}^{1+2+3..........+n}})}^{1/n}}\]                   \[={{\left( {{3}^{\frac{n(n+1)}{2}}} \right)}^{1/n}}={{3}^{\frac{(n+1)}{2}}}\].
