Let a , d are first term and common
difference of an A.P
nth term = Last term = a + (n - 1)d
an = a + (n - 1 )d
Now,
It is given that,
Third term = 12
a + 2d = 12 ------(1)
Last term = 106
a + 49d = 106 ---(2) =
Subtract (1) from (2), we get
47d = 94
d = 2
Substitute d value in equation (1),
We get
a + 2 x 2 = 12
a = 12 - 4
a = 8
69th term = a + 69d
a69 = 8 + 68 x 2
= 8 + 136
= 144
Hope it helps ✌
