These two geometric sequences have the same sum:
5+20+80 = 7+14+28+56 = 105
We can categorise each sequence by three parameters: the starting number, the common ratio and the number of terms. So the above sequences would be [5,4,3] and [7,2,4] respectively. For the purposes of this puzzle the parameters are all positive integers, the common ratio must be at least 2 and the number of terms must be at least 3.
Part 1: Can you find the smallest example of two sequences having the same sum?
Part 2: For the above sequences the number 4 appears twice in the parameters, as the common ratio of the first sequence and as the number of terms in the second sequence. Can you find the smallest example of two sequences having the same sum but where all six parameters are distinct?
