Let the first terms and the common differences of the two AP be A, a ans D, d.

Their 9th terms are:

⇒A+(9-1)D = A+8D --------------------(i)

⇒a+(9-1)d = a+8d---------------------(ii)

A/Q:

⇒  \frac{\frac{n}2 (2A+(n-1)D)}{\frac{n}2 (2a+(n-1)d)} = \frac{7n+1}{4n+27}

⇒   \frac{ (2A+(n-1)D)}{ (2a+(n-1)d)} = \frac{7n+1}{4n+27}   (Since the number of terms in both AP is n)

 ⇒  \frac{\frac{(2A+(n-1)D)}{2}}{(\frac{(2a+(n-1)d)}{2}} = \frac{7n+1}{4n+27}      (Dividing the num and deno in LHS by 2)

⇒   \frac{A+\frac{(n-1)D)}{2}}{a+\frac{(n-1)d)}{2}} = \frac{7n+1}{4n+27}  -----------------------------------(iii)

Putting n=17 in --(iii)

  ⇒      \frac{A+\frac{(17-1)D)}{2}}{a+\frac{(17-1)d)}{2}} = \frac{7.17+1}{4.17+27}

  ⇒      \frac{ (A+8D)}{ (a+8d)} = \frac{120}{95}

  ⇒     \frac{ (A+8D)}{ (a+8d)} = \frac{24}{19}

Using previously formed equation (i) and (ii) we get that the ratio of their 9th terms  =\frac{24}{19}
