उत्तर

The given sequence is `1/6, 1/4, 1/3`

The above sequence is an A.P.

∴ a = `1/6`

d = `1/4 -1/6`

= `(3 - 2)/12`

= `1/12`

The next four terms of the sequence are

t4 = t3 + d

= `1/3 + 1/12`

= `5/12`

t5 = t4 + d

= `5/12 + 1/12`

= `6/12`

= `1/2`

t6 = t5 + d

= `1/2 + 1/12`

= `7/12`

t7 = t6 + d

= `7/12 + 1/12`

= `8/12`

= `2/3`

`S_n = n/2 [2a + (n - 1)d]`

= `n/2 [2(1/6) + (n - 1)(1/12)]`

= `n/2 (1/3 + 1/12 n - 1/12)`

= `n/2(n/12 + 1/4)`

∴ `S_n = (n(n + 3))/24`

Q.16


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`.
