उत्तर

\[- 1, - \frac{5}{6}, - \frac{2}{3}, - \frac{1}{2}, . . . , \frac{10}{3}\]

Here, we have:
a  =\[- 1\]

\[d = \left( \frac{- 5}{6} - \left( - 1 \right) \right) = \left( 1 - \frac{5}{6} \right) = \frac{1}{6}\]

\[ a_n = \frac{10}{3}\]

Let there be n terms in the given A.P.

\[\text { Also }, a_n = a + \left( n - 1 \right)d\]

\[ \Rightarrow \frac{10}{3} = - 1 + \left( n - 1 \right)\frac{1}{6}\]

\[ \Rightarrow \frac{13}{3} = \left( n - 1 \right)\frac{1}{6}\]

\[ \Rightarrow 26 = \left( n - 1 \right)\]

\[ \Rightarrow 27 = n\]

Thus, there are 27 terms in the given A.P.
