उत्तर

84, 80, 76...

Here, we have:

a = 84

\[d = \left( 80 - 84 \right) = - 4\]

\[\text { Let }a_n = 0\]

\[ \Rightarrow a + (n - 1)d = 0\]

\[ \Rightarrow 84 + (n - 1)\left( - 4 \right) = 0\]

\[ \Rightarrow (n - 1)\left( - 4 \right) = - 84\]

\[ \Rightarrow (n - 1) = 21\]

\[ \Rightarrow n = 22\]

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