Question

2,5,8,11.... the largest three digit number in this series ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

998

Step-by-step explanation:

2,5,8,11 represents an Arithmetic Progression,

with a= 2, common difference d= 3

Let us assume 1000 is the nth term of the A.P

Note: If 1000 is not part of the A.P then we will get a decimal number and we can remove the decimal part to get the largest 3 digit number in the A.P

a+(n-1)d = 1000

2 + (n-1) 3 = 1000

n-1 = 998/3 = 332.6

n = 333.6

The largest term is the 333rd term of this A.P

Which is,

2 + (333-1) 3

2+ 332* 3 = 996+2 = 998
