An arithmetic progression P has first term a and common difference d. An arithmetic progression Q has first term 2(a + 1) and common difference (d + 1). It is given that

\(\frac{\text{5th term of } P}{\text{12th term of } Q} = \frac{1}{3}\) and \(\frac{\text{Sum of first 5 terms of } P}{\text{Sum of first 5 terms of } Q} = \frac{2}{3}.\)

Find the value of a and the value of d.
