उत्तर

Let a be the first term and d be the common difference of the AP. Then,

`a_24 = 2a_10`          (Given)

⇒ a + 23d = 2(a +9d)                   [a= a + (n-1) d]

⇒  a+ 23d = 2a - 18d

⇒  2a - a = 23d -18d

⇒  a = 5d          ..............(1)

Now , 

`(a_72)/(a_15) = (a+ 71d)/(a+14d) `

⇒  ` (a_72)/(a_15) = (5d + 71d)/(5d+14d)`              [From(1)]

⇒  `(a_72)/(a_15) = (76d)/(19d)=4`

⇒  `a_72 = 4 xx a_15`

Hence, the 72nd term of the AP is 4 times its 15th term.
