    see explanation

    Step-by-step explanation:

    A geometric progression has a common ratio r between consecutive terms

    That is each term in the sequence is obtained by multiplying the previous term by r

    Consider 4, 8, 16, 32

    4 * 2 = 8

    8 * 2 = 16

    16 * 2 = 32

    This is a geometric progression with r = 2

    Consider 3, 6, 9, 12

    3 * 2 = 6

    6 * 2 = 12 ≠ 9

    This is not a geometric progression

    Consider 2, 6, 18, 54

    2 * 3 = 6

    6 * 3 = 18

    18 * 3 = 54

    This is a geometric progression with r = 3

    Consider 1, 5, 12, 125

    1 * 5 = 5

    5 * 5 = 25 ≠ 12

    This is not a geometric progression
