Solution
The given sequence is 12, 16, 20, 24,...
Here,
First term (a) = 12
Common difference (d) = a2 – a1
= 16 – (12)
= 4
Now,
a24 = a + (n – 1)d
∴ a24 = 12 + (24 – 1) 4
= 12 + 23 × 4
= 12 + 92
= 104
Hence, the 24th term of the progression is 104.

Decide whether 301 is term of given sequence 5, 11, 17, 23,.....
Activity :- Here, d = `square`, therefore this sequence is an A.P.
a = 5, d = `square`
Let nth term of this A.P. be 301.
tn = a + (n – 1) `square`
301 = 5 + (n – 1) × `square`
301 = 6n – 1
n = `302/6` = `square`
But n is not positive integer.
Therefore, 301 is `square` the term of sequence 5, 11, 17, 23,......
