उत्तर

Let a be the first term and d be the common difference of the AP. Then,

`10 xx a_10 = 15 xx a_15 `  (Given)

⇒10(a +9d) = 15 (a+14d)       { a= a+ (n-1)d]

⇒ 2 (a + 9d)=(a +14d)

⇒ 2a + 18d = 3a + 42d

⇒ a= -24d

⇒a + 24d = 0

⇒ a+ (25-1) d=0

⇒ a25 =0 

Hence, the 25th term of the AP is 0.
