Question

Solution

`(1 xx 2 + 2 xx 3 + 3 xx 4 + 4 xx 5 + ...  "upto n terms")/(1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + ...  "upto n terms") = 100/3,`

∴ `(sum_("r" = 1)^"n""r"("r" + 1))/(sum_("r" = 1)^"n" "r") = 100/3`

∴ `(sum_("r" = 1)^"n" "r"^2 + sum_("r" = 1)^"n" "r")/(sum_("r" = 1)^"n" "r") = 100/3`

∴ `(("n"("n" + 1)(2"n" + 1))/6 + ("n"("n" + 1))/2)/(("n"("n" + 1))/2) = 100/3`

∴ `(("n"("n" + 1))/6[(2"n" + 1) + 3])/(("n"("n" + 1))/2) = 100/3`

∴ `(2("n" + 2))/3= 100/3`

∴ n + 2 = 50

∴  n = 48
