उत्तर
Since Ramkali increased her weekly savings uniformly every week by a fixed number, her savings will form an AP.
Let Sn be the sum of savings in all 12 weeks.
`:.S_n=n/2[2a+(n-1)d]` (Here, a is the money saved in the first week and d is the fixed increase in the weekly savings.)
`=>S_n=12/2[2xx100+(12-1)20]`
= Rs 2520
Ramkali required Rs 2,500 after 12 weeks, but she saved Rs 2,520. So, she will be able to send her daughter to school after 12 weeks.
It shows that Ramkali is aware of the importance of girl child education
