उत्तर
Given that,
a = 17
l = 350
d = 9
Let there be n terms in the A.P.
l = a + (n − 1) d
350 = 17 + (n − 1)9
9n = 350 + 9 - 17
9n = 359 - 17
9n = 342
⇒ n = `342/9`
⇒ n = 38
Sn = `n/2(a+l)`
Sn = `38/2(17+350)`
= 19 × 367
= 6973
Thus, this A.P. contains 38 terms and the sum of the terms of this A.P. is 6973.
