According to Google Translate, the problem reads (según Google Translate, el problema dice): 

 

The second term of a geometric progression is 45 and the fifth is 32,805 calculate the first term, construct the progression and calculate the sum of them.

Let's say that the first term is "a", and the common ratio is "x".

 

Then the sequence is: \(a,ax,ax^{2}, ax^{3},...\).

The sequence will go on forever, and given that they are positive integers, I do not think it is possible to find the sum.

However, we can find the first term. We know that the second term is 45 and the fifth term is 32805, so:

\(ax=45\) and \(ax^{4}=32,805\).

From this, we can find x=27 and a=5/3.
