Advertisements
Solution
The numbers lying between 200 and 400, which are divisible by 7, are
203, 210, 217, … 399
∴First term, a = 203
Last term, l = 399
Common difference, d = 7
Let the number of terms of the A.P. be n.
∴ an = 399 = a + (n –1) d
⇒ 399 = 203 + (n –1) 7
⇒ 7 (n –1) = 196
⇒ n –1 = 28
⇒ n = 29
