We know that
Sum of n terms = n(2a+(n-1)d)/2 
Now[tex] \frac{2a1+(n-1)d1}{2a2+(n-2)d2} = \frac{n+7}{3n+1} we need the ratio of 7th term . So put n=13 in the above equation [/tex]
 \frac{2a1+12d1}{2a2+12d2}  = \frac{n+7}{3n+1}
 \frac{a1+6d1}{a2+6d2}= \frac{n+7}{3n+1}

Put n=13 in rhs also

[tex] \frac{a1+6d1}{a2+6d2} = \frac{13+7}{39+1} = \frac{20}{40}= \frac{1}{2} [/tex]






JOEYTRIBBIANIrockz: thanks dude
JOEYTRIBBIANIrockz: dude but how did you take n=13 directly without any calculation??
victory1venkatesh: I wanted to get a7= a+6d =2a+12d which inturn gives that n=13
