Hlw Guys ☺
Plz Solve it.....!!

If the First term is 3, then Write an AP.

Answer:
To find the AP if the sum of first n terms of arithmetic progression is 210 and sum of its first (n-1) terms is 171. If the first term is 3 .
As we know that if AP has n terms,then after removing (n-1) terms,we are left with the last term.To find the AP if the sum of first n terms of arithmetic progression is 210 and sum of its first (n-1) terms is 171.

Please mark it as brainliest :-P
First term (a) = 3
We know that,
Sn = n/2(2a+(n-1)d)
Or,
Sn = n/2(a+l)
Last term = Sn - Sn-1 = 210 - 17 = 193
➡️Sn = n/2(3+193) = 210
=> 98n = 210
=> n = 210/98 ---- (I)
