These are in sequence of A.P=25,22,19,........,4
Then a=25
d=22-25=-3
L=4
L=a + (n – 1) d
4=25+(n-1)-3
4=25-3n+3
4=28-3n
3n+4=28
3n=28-4
3n=24
n=24/3
n=8
There fore there are 8 bedroses.
Then a=25
d=22-25=-3
L=4
L=a + (n – 1) d
4=25+(n-1)-3
4=25-3n+3
4=28-3n
3n+4=28
3n=28-4
3n=24
n=24/3
n=8
There fore there are 8 bedroses.

a=25
d= -3
an = 4
n= ?!
an=a+(n-1)d
4=25-3n+3
4=28-3n
-24= -3n
n= -24/-3
n = 8
There are 8 rows
d= -3
an = 4
n= ?!
an=a+(n-1)d
4=25-3n+3
4=28-3n
-24= -3n
n= -24/-3
n = 8
There are 8 rows
