Sum Of First 24 Terms = 2,400
Given:
AP = 8,16,24,32
First term of the Arithmetic Progression (a) = 8
Calculating the Common difference of the Arithmetic Progression (d):
= a2 - a1
Putting values we get:
= 16 - 8
= 8
Therefore, the common difference of the AP is 8.
To Find:
The sum of first 24 terms of the AP.
Calculating:
Formula we use to find the sum of n terms of an AP:
Sn = n/2(2a + (n - 1) d)
Substituting all the values known to us in this formula we get:
Sn = 24/2(2 x 8 + (24 - 1) x 8)
Sn = 12 x (16 + (23) x 8)
Sn = 12 x (16 + 184)
Sn = 12 x (200)
Sn = 2,400
Therefore, the sum of first 24 terms of the AP is 2,400.
