Question

Insert 5.A.M's between 8 & 26
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Insert five numbers between 8 and 26 such that the resulting sequence is an A.P. 8, A1, A2, A3, A4, A5, 26 is an A.P. Thus, the required five numbers between 8 and 26 are 11, 14, 17, 20, and 23.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

let a-2d, a-d, a, a+d, a+2d be required numbers.

then a-3d will be 8 and a+3d will be 26

a+3d +a-3d = 8+26 =34

2a =34

a=17

now

a-3d=8

17-3d =8

3d =9

d=3

add 3 for 8 and so on..

the 5 numbers are 11, 14, 17, 20, 23.
