The value of n is 111

Step-by-step explanation:

Given two A.P.

In given A.P.  2, 5, 8 ,.....

a= 2 and d= 5-2=3 where a is the first term and d is the common difference

as we know the sum of n terms of an A.P. is given by

S_n= \dfrac{n}{2} (2a+(n-1)d)

so

S_n=\dfrac{n}{2} (2\times 2_(n-1)\times 3)

similarly inn given A.P. 57, 59, 61, .... a= 57 and d= 59-57= 2

s_n=\dfrac{n}{2} (2\times 57+(n-1)2)

The sum of n terms of these two A.P is equal

\dfrac{n}{2} (2 \times 2+(n-1)3)=\dfrac{n}{2} (2 \times 57+(n-1)2)\\\\ 4+3n-3=114+2n-2\\\\1+3n=112+2n\\\\3n-2n=112-1\\\\n=111

Hence the value of n= 111
