Question

Insert five numbers between 8 and 26 such that the resulting sequence is in AP.

Answer 1

Answer:

26-8=18

Step-by-step explanation:

18/6 = 3 = d

8 , 11 , 14 , 17 , 20 , 23 , 26

Answer 2

Answer:

11, 14, 17, 20, 23

Step-by-step explanation:

We need 7 numbers in AP with the first term 8 and seventh term 26.

a∨7 = a + 6d

26 = 8 + 6d

d = 3

The first and last terms of the required AP are 8 and 26 respectively.

And the common difference is 3.

The required sequence is 8, 11, 14, 17, 20, 23, 26.
