Given:-

First three terms of a sequence i.e., \frac{1}{6},\frac{1}{4},\frac{1}{3}

To Find:-

Next four terms and sum S_{n}

Explanation:-

Since, given sequence is an arithmetic progression.

\text{Therefore, common difference(d)}=\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{6}=\frac{1}{12}

Now, add \frac{1}{12} in every term to obtain the next term.

\Rightarrow\text{fourth term, }a_{4}=\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{12}=\frac{5}{12}\\\\\text{fifth term, }a_{5}=\frac{5}{12}+\frac{1}{12}=\frac{1}{2}\\\\\text{sixth term, }a_{6}=\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{12}=\frac{7}{12}

\text{seventh term, }a_{7}=\frac{7}{12}+\frac{1}{12}=\frac{2}{3}

The general expression to calculate sum in arithmetic progression upto 'n' terms is given by:-

S_{n}=a_{1}+(n-1)\times d

\text{Sum upto n=7 terms, }S_{7}=a_{1}+(7-1)\times d\\\\S_{7}=\frac{1}{6}+6\times\frac{1}{12}=\frac{1}{6}+\frac{1}{2}=\frac{4}{6}=\frac{2}{3}
