First we can find that which term is 253
We can see that D=5 and a=3
=> 253 = 3 + 5(n-1)
=> 250 = 5(n-1)
=> 50 = n-1
=> 51= n
So 253 is the 51st term
20th term from last = 51-20= 31
31st term = 3 + 5(31-1) = 3 + 150 = 153
We can see that D=5 and a=3
=> 253 = 3 + 5(n-1)
=> 250 = 5(n-1)
=> 50 = n-1
=> 51= n
So 253 is the 51st term
20th term from last = 51-20= 31
31st term = 3 + 5(31-1) = 3 + 150 = 153

Answer:
Un = a + (n-1) d
In this question
a = 253
d = -5 (common difference)( from last)
Finally, 20th term
U20 = 253 +( 20-1)×(-5)
= 253 -100 +5
= 258.
For any doubt you ask to me. If i can help you that will be give me the pleasure.
Thank you
