उत्तर

 It is given that,
First term (a) = 1 
Last term (tn) = 20
Sum of terms (Sn) = 399
We know that,

\[t_n = a + \left( n - 1 \right)d\]

\[ S_n = \frac{n}{2}\left( 2a + \left( n - 1 \right)d \right)\]

\[ \Rightarrow S_n = \frac{n}{2}\left( a + \left( a + \left( n - 1 \right)d \right) \right)\]

\[ \Rightarrow S_n = \frac{n}{2}\left( a + t_n \right)\]

\[ \Rightarrow 399 = \frac{n}{2}\left( 1 + 20 \right)\]

\[ \Rightarrow 399 = \frac{21n}{2}\]

\[ \Rightarrow 21n = 399 \times 2\]

\[ \Rightarrow n = \frac{798}{21}\]

\[ \Rightarrow n = 38\]

First term and the common differences of an A.P. are 6 and 3 respectively; find S27.

Solution: First term = a = 6, common difference = d = 3, S27 = ?

Sn = `27/2 [12 + (27 - 1)square]`

= `27/2 xx square`

= 27 × 45

S27 = `square`
