Read Solution (Total 3)
-
- 65th
Given, a=3,d=12
54th term=3+(53)12=639
132+639=771
The 'n'th term which is 771, 3+(n-1)12=771, n=65 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(0)
- The common difference is d=12
so 132/12=11
54+11=65th term - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(0)
- 65th term
54th term = 3 + (54-1)*12 = 639
let,
Tn term of A.p. is 132 more than 54th term
then,
Tn = 132 + 54th term
Tn = 132 + 639 = 771
3 + ( n - 1 )*12 = 771
n = { (771 - 3) / 12 } + 1
n = 65
