Answer:
d=-10
Step-by-step explanation:
Given a=100,
S6 = 5(S12 -S6)
S6 = 5S12 -5S6
∴6S6 = 5S12...... eqn 1
Sn= n[2a+(n-1)d]/2
S6=6[2x100 + 5d]/2 = 600 + 15d
S12 = 12[2x100 + 11d]/2 = 1200 + 66d
Substituting the values in eqn 1
6[600 + 15d] = 5[1200 + 66d]
3600 + 90d = 6000 + 330d
330d - 90d = 3600 - 6000
240d = -2400
∴ d = -10
