Question
Determine the sum of first 100 terms of given A.P. 12, 14, 16, 18, 20,......
Activity :- Here, a = 12, d = `square`, n = 100, S100 = ?
Sn = `"n"/2 [square + ("n" - 1)"d"]`
S100 = `square/2 [24 + (100 - 1)"d"]`
= `50(24 + square)`
= `square`
= `square`

Solution
Here, a = 12, d = 14 – 12 = \[\boxed{2}\], n = 100, S100 = ?
Sn = \[\frac{\text{n}}{2} [\boxed{\text{2a}} + (\text{n} - 1)\text{d}]\]
S100 = \[\frac{\boxed{100}}{2} [24 + (100 - 1)\text{d}]\]
= 50[24 + 99(2)]
= \[50(24 + \boxed{198})\]
= \[\boxed{50(222)}\]
= \[\boxed{11100}\]

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`.
