उत्तर

Let a be the first term and d be the common difference of the A.P.

Then, 4 × a4 = 18 × a18   ...(Given)

⇒ 4(a + 3d) = 18(a + 17d)   ...[∵ a= a + (n – 1)d]

⇒ 2(a + 3d) = 9(a + 17d)

⇒ 2a + 6d = 9a + 153d

⇒ 7a = –147d

⇒ a = –21d

⇒ a + 21d = 0

⇒ a + (22 – 1)d = 0

⇒ a22 = 0

Hence, the 22nd term of the A.P. is 0.
