उत्तर

The given sequence is `1/6, 1/4, 1/3`

The above sequence is an A.P.

∴ a = `1/6`

d = `1/4 -1/6 = ((6 - 4)/(6 xx 4))= 2/24 = 1/12`

The next four terms of the sequence are

t4 = t3 + d = `1/3 + 1/12 = 5/12`

t5 = t4 + d = `5/12 + 1/12 = 6/12 = 1/2`

t6 = t5 + d = `1/2 + 1/12 = 7/12`

t7 = t6 + d = `7/12 + 1/12 = 8/12 = 2/3`

Sn = `"n"/2 [2"a" + ("n" - 1)"d"]`

= `"n"/2 [2(1/6) + ("n" - 1)(1/12)]`

= `"n"/2 (1/3 + 1/12 "n" - 1/12)`

= `"n"/2("n"/12 + 1/4)`

∴ Sn = `("n"("n" + 3))/24`

Find the sum of first 1000 positive integers.

Activity :- Let 1 + 2 + 3 + ........ + 1000

Using formula for the sum of first n terms of an A.P.,

Sn = `square`

S1000 = `square/2 (1 + 1000)`

= 500 × 1001

= `square`

Therefore, Sum of the first 1000 positive integer is `square`
