Answer:
Therefore, Am = a+ (m-1)d=1/n ….(i)
An = a+(n-1)d=1/m ….(ii)
Subtracting equation (ii) from (i)
d[(m-1)-(n-1)] = 1/n-1/m,
d(m-n) = (m-n)/mn,
d = 1/mn ….(iii) ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
,,,123456
Substituting equation (iii) in (i)
a+(m-1)/mn = 1/n,
a = 1/n[1-(m-1)/m],
a = 1/mn ….(iv)
Now Amn i.e the mnth term of AP = a+(mn-1)d,
