What is the 8th term of the geometric sequence where a1 = 625 and a3 = 25?

Parth (parthkohli):

Looks like 5^4, then 5^3, then 5^2.. and so on

Parth (parthkohli):

5^4 - 1st 5^3 - 2nd 5^2 - 3rd 5^1 - 4th 5^0 - 5th 5^-1 - 6th 5^-2 - 7th 5^-3 - 8th

Parth (parthkohli):

\( \color{Black}{\Rightarrow 5^{-3} = {1 \over 5^3} = {1 \over 125}}\)
