उत्तर
In the given problem, we need to find the sum of terms for different arithmetic progressions. So, here we use the following formula for the sum of n terms of an A.P.,
`S_n = n/2 [2a +_ (n -1)d]`
Where; a = first term for the given A.P.
d = common difference of the given A.P.
n = number of terms
a + b, a − b, a − 3b, ... to 22 terms]
Common difference of the A.P. (d) = `a_2 - a_1`
= (a - b) -(a + b)
= a - b - a - b
= -2b
Number of terms (n) = 22
The first term for the given A.P. (a) = a + b
So, using the formula we get,
`S_22 = 22/2 [2(a + b) + (22- 1)(-2b)]`
`= (11)[2a + 2b + (21)(-2b)]`
`= (11)[2a + 2b - 42b]`
= 22a - 440b
Therefore the sum of first 22 terms for the give A.P is 22a - 440b

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`.
