Question

For an ap 1\3,5\3,9\3,13\3...write the common difference.

Answer 1

Heya !!!

This is your answer......

Given AP :

1/3, 5/3, 9/3, ........

We have to find the common difference...

Common difference = a(n+1) - an
Here....
d = a2 - a1
= 5/3 - 1/3
= 4/3.

Hence the common difference is 4/3.


Holew it helps

Answer 2

Given

• AP 1\3,5\3,9\3,13\3..

To find

• the common difference.

Solution

we are provided a arithmetic progression and are asked to find the common difference between each term.

common difference

common difference of an arithmetic progression means the difference between two consecutive terms of an AP. It is obtained by subtracting the successive term by the previous term. Common difference of an Arithmetic progression is generally represented by the letter d.

Arithmetic mean as provided in the question,

1\3,5\3,9\3,13\3..

here the first term would be , 1/3 and the successive term would be 5/3 Therefore, the common difference of the Arithmetic progression is,

d = 5/3 - 1/3

or, d = (5-1)/3

or, d = 4/3

Hence, the common difference of the AP is 4/3
