GIVEN:-
sum of first 10terms= 4*(sum of first 5terms)
So, S10=4* S5
_________________________________
Now,
we know that,
Sn=n/2{2a+(n-1)d}
•°• S10=10/2{2a+(10-1)d}
=>5{2a+9d}
•°• S5=5/2{2a+(5-1)d}
=>5/2{2a+4d}
S10=4*S5 {given}
putting the value of S10 and S5:-
5{2a+9d}=4*5/2{2a+4d}
=>2a+9d=4*1/2{2a+4d}
=>2a+9d=2(2a+4d)
=>2a+9d=4a+8d
=>9d-8d=4a-2a
=>d=2a
=>d/a=2/1
=>a/d=1/2
or,
a:d=1:2
Here, is your answer :)
