Let $a_n = \frac{10^n}{n!}$ for $n = 1, 2, 3, \ldots$. Then the greatest value of $n$ for which $a_n$ is the greatest is

The value of $\left[\frac{2^{2020}+1}{2^{2018}+1}\right]+\left[\frac{3^{2020}+1}{3^{2018}+1}\right]+\left[\frac{4^{2020}+1}{4^{2018}+1}\right] +\left[\frac{5^{2020}+1}{5^{2018}+1}\right] + \left[\frac{6^{2020}+1}{6^{2018}+1}\right]$ is (where $[\cdot]$ denotes the greatest integer function):

Let $a_1=b_1=1$ and $a_n=a_{n-1}+(n-1)$,$b_n=b_{n-1}+a_{n-1}$,$\forall n \geq 2$. If $S =\sum \limits_{n=1}^{10} \frac{b_n}{2^n}$ and $T =\sum \limits_{n=1}^8 \frac{n}{2^{n-1}}$,then $2^7(2S - T)$ is equal to $........$.

Let $x_{1}, x_{2}, x_{3}, \ldots, x_{20}$ be in a geometric progression with $x_{1} = 3$ and common ratio $r = \frac{1}{2}$. $A$ new data set is constructed by replacing each $x_{i}$ with $(x_{i} - i)^{2}$. If $\bar{x}$ is the mean of the new data,then the greatest integer less than or equal to $\bar{x}$ is $.....$

If the first three terms of the sequence $\frac{1}{16}, a, b, \frac{1}{6}$ are in a geometric progression and the last three terms are in a harmonic progression,then the values of $a$ and $b$ are:

Suppose the sequence $a_1, a_2, a_3, \ldots$ is an arithmetic progression of distinct numbers such that the sequence $a_1, a_2, a_4, a_8, \ldots$ is a geometric progression. The common ratio of the geometric progression is
