उत्तर
Amount invested by Shubhankar in the national savings certificate scheme is as follows:
500, 700, 900,...
The above sequence is an A.P.
∴ a = 500, d = 700 – 500 = 200, n = 12
Now, `S_n = n/2 [2a + (n - 1)d]`
∴ `S_12 = 12/2 [2(500) + (12 - 1)(200)]`
= 6[1000 + 11(200)]
= 6(1000 + 2200)
= 6(3200)
= 19200
∴ The total amount invested by Shubhankar is ₹ 19,200.

Find the sum of natural numbers between 1 to 140, which are divisible by 4.
Activity: Natural numbers between 1 to 140 divisible by 4 are, 4, 8, 12, 16,......, 136
Here d = 4, therefore this sequence is an A.P.
a = 4, d = 4, tn = 136, Sn = ?
tn = a + (n – 1)d
`square` = 4 + (n – 1) × 4
`square` = (n – 1) × 4
n = `square`
Now,
Sn = `"n"/2["a" + "t"_"n"]`
Sn = 17 × `square`
Sn = `square`
Therefore, the sum of natural numbers between 1 to 140, which are divisible by 4 is `square`.
